I have a suggestion... If a province already has a spell cast upon it, should that spell have preference or at least have some effect on any later spell cast to counter it?
One example... Love & Peace vs. Chastity
If I cast Love & Peace on my province to up my birth rates and then later on, an enemy casts Chastity, despite the spell duration of my original spell, I go from raised birth rates to no birth rates.
However, if an enemy casts Chastity on my province and then later on, I cast Love & Peace to counter it, it doesn't work and I am still at no birth rates for the duration.
How is that right?
I think that if a province already has a spell cast in place (self or enemy), a second opposite spell should be able to only hinder or negate the effects of the original spell.
Make it so that the spell needs to be cast twice for the effects to take place, first to counter the original spell and second to cast the spell (and maybe make it harder to do so).
So... I cast Love & Peace and 2 ticks later, an enemy wants to cast Chastity... That enemy would have to cast twice. The first cast would negate my original spell and then the second cast would effect my province.
The same should go the other way as well. If I had Chastity cast on my province, I would need to cast Love and Peace twice, first to negate the original spell and then second to get the effects of L&P.
I know that there are other spells that counter each other and was using this one as an example.
Thanks!
