Default NAP

Due to a dispute I am having with rex_havok, I propose the question:

Isn't the global replaced chosen at random?

Default Re: NAP

I mean if you cast the same spell, specifically targetting the global of whoever you had the NAP with.

Default Re: NAP

Wouldn't that be up to the terms of the NAP? If it's a blanket statement, as is usual, I certainly can't see how I could consider dispelling my global (which is the case when one is replaced) not to be a violation. Of course viewpoints may vary, but I'd say it's very clearly an act of aggression when one player uses her resources to deprive another of his.

Default Re: NAP

Ok, I voted NO before I read the rest of the thread. You may need to start a new thread, with a more carefully worded question. It definetely is a violation if I STEAL your spell. If yours just happens to be the one that gets dispelled when the list is full, I'd say thats not a violation. Also, if the circumstance is you having ALL or MANY of the globals, you may have to give him so leaway...

Default Re: NAP

I wouldn't consider it as a violation of generic NAP. It is just an economic battle for dominance. Same as grabbing unique summons, artifacts etc... However if that global is something destructive that actually kills other sides troops, then I'm not sure...

Generally, I'm assuming that NAP just prevents open attacks while allowing both sides concentrate on the economic race. Of course, custom-tailored NAPs may include variety of other conditions...
