Corollary to Allegiance War Question

Name:	Sing Lung
Question Title:	Corollary to Allegiance War Question
Category:	Allegiances
Question:	Saw your response to the allegiance war question -- I like the idea the questioner set forth (of accepting a war between allegiances and setting a "kill score" of some kind to determine who "wins" the allegiance war). Conditional-PK may not be a possibility anytime soon -- but what about a conditional war like the questioner described on DARKTIDE where everybody's already PK? (Might even be reason enough to tempt me over to DarkTide *grin*) Keep up the great work folks!

Answer:	Darktide or not, there's still a non-trivial coding task involved - there has to be a mechanism in place to keep track of all of an allegiance's members, in real time.
