It would be to easily exploitable if it was an auto accept,

Imagine if you where raiding someone in an alliance, god you would auto drag your alliance into a new war every day, would never work.

Um... I don't think I was clear enough.

1. you alliance declares war and you guys start attacking
2. the enemy alliance starts attacking back = acceptance of the war type you did.
3. IF you sell off after attacking, well that counts as stats lost (not 100% sure here as something would need to be done so that the enemy alliance got a fair crack at your real stats, not sold off stats)

This way it doesn't matter if you were raiding someone as the alliance war has to be declared and they have to respond.

Though to be fair the alliance that strikes first almost always will have the advantage.

the attacking alliance ALWAYS has the advantage. Don't be coy.

They will always manipulate their accounts to win what ever style "War" setting is chosen.

Now what may prove to be an intresting spin is,

Alliance A Declare standard "war". Alliance A attacks alliance B. NOW alliance B has the choice of "War" type and can choose which ever it wants and it is a "Forced" war setting meaning alliance A can not back out.

Secondly, Alliance wars can be "fore warned", meaning if 2 alliances actually decide to use it then the war locks them from attacks till war starts and it randomly starts 1 to 3 days from the time BOTH have accepted it. This way neither has first shot and it luck of the draw. Both can prepare for the comming battle.

Also it should lock selling of anything, nothin can be sold, and nothing untrained as well. outside attacks are allowed but idk about trades outside the galactic market.
