The question this time is whether we should specify our military alignment in the constitution. Vote for the options you approve of:

  1. Specify alignment as defender in constitution
  2. Specify alignment as either defender or neutral
  3. Don't specify alignment
  4. Prohibit being invader
  5. Other (please specify)

Use committal language; "defense" and "neutrality" are not as committal as *resistance to invasion or occupation or both.

I'm changing my vote to 4 for Cormac's, and will update the options in the opening post to include it.

Will literally form a raider group in Lazarus out of pure protest if the government prohibits being invader.

It would be the region that is prohibited from invading, not individuals.

Just to be clear, with the recent events in the TBR, specifying us a defender would not prohibit the Lazarene army to participate in such an enterprise, but saying we couldn't invade would?

There is an argument to be made that specifying we're defender would also prevent the LLA from participating in an invasion of a raider region. Defender =/= invader.

We should make clear that the LLA can invade regions Lazarus has declared war against. If we want to, we can also include the ability to invade raider regions that we haven't declared war against, though I don't recommend that. Defender resources are better spent defending, not invading.
