Unable to break alliance - Superdiplomat??

from GalCiv2 Forums

Hello-

For some reason I am unable to go to war with any race. The game says I need to break alliance before I can attack. However I cannot find anyway to actually break an alliance. Any help appreicated.

Also: What the heck is "Team"? I've been a team with every race for the entire game. I never even been in one battle and this game is quite far along now. Ready to make war...but cant. Thank you for any help.

About me:

Terran - Superdiplomat; all foreign relations are "Team". My govt is "federation".

If you're set to team, you're screwed. Team is permanently allied, it's totally unbreakable. Check the settings when you start a new game, on the screen where you can pick your opponents there is a line where you can set starting relations with each civ, it's not quite dead center in the screen, just above where you set difficulty. On each opponent, make sure that is set to something other than team - default should be unknown, but occasionally it glitches and sets them all to team.

If this had been a normal alliance situation, you can break the alliance on the trade screen.

Thank you Willy! I got a good laugh this morning (at my expense) :-) But on the bright side I learned some key colony management skills and the whole "Approval" thing. Thanks again. Best regards.

Whenever i start a new game, i always click on the settings i want and reset them, even if they 'appear' correct. Although it hasn't happened after the latest updates, things have 'happened' in the past with my game settings, so i just cannot trust them anymore.
