I would recommend password-protecting the game then.

What happens when someone breaks the rules as laid out in this thread?

No, that's unnecessary.

The other player currently in there was also in your first game.

It seems very interesting, and i would be happy to join this or a future game.

Just one question: while announcements of, or withdrawals from, Pacts obviously need to be public, why do not allow for private press between players when they are trying to reach an agreement? One may be working on different, even conflicting pacts at the same time, and then would publicly announce only the one(s) that were agreed upon.

That's one option I was thinking about.

It seems a good idea. But for this game, we will not change the rules any further. We had a problem on the previous game when we suggested to clarify a point and the guy felt we were rigging the rules.

So for this game, we keep this set of rules but all players should think about how to improve it, and your suggestion is a good one.

However, only public messaging make the game more lively since everything happens in public, including offer to negotiate. That's fun.

What if a nation has a defensive pact with one nation and an offensive pact with other and those two nations go to war?

Simple: declare war on both.

Why?
Goal of the defensive pact: declare war on the aggressor.
Goal of the offensive pact: declare war on the target.
Both pacts triggering at the same time: War, war never changes.

Does declaring a war against a player bound the ''aggressor'' to actually use his units to attack tactically, or can they stay in effectively a peaceful position?
