"Share minefield codes" clause

[Phoenix-D]

Once you break the treaty, he can't get through the mines. And I think it -is- required for the kines not to blow them up.

If a sub-option isn't checked, the treaty isn't enforced.

As a bonus question: What exactly does the 'Empires will assist each other militarily when attacked' clause do?

[Phoenix-D]

It might determine who shoots at who if you're in combat with multiple empires at the same time.

[Raapys]

So, it's possible to have an ally you have non-aggression pact with to actually fight you, if you happen to enter a system where there's your ally and an enemy which has a 'military assistance' pact with your ally? The non-aggression pact only matter in the system-view when determining if combats start when you enter an occupied hex?

hehe, I love the "might" . But on the diplomatic front, might he be a tiny bit enclined to send a few ships if I am being attacked? Or be a bit displeased if I don't help him when he is? At least by design?

[Phoenix-D]

I haven't tested it and I haven't checked the documentation.

According to the paper manual it's what you said, e.g. who shoots at whom during combat. I just hoped there were also some diplomatic consequences that did not made it into the manual.
