As suggested above a seperate space for the ongoing wars, status of it, related links to them and the various embargos, things like that. And that too, if the involved parties are interested to keep the curent situation regarding their part of space updated and want everyone travelling through it to know about it. Those threads should be kept ckean of spam and only should be updated by the highest ranking oficial of said group. Just as in the stories forum.
Since if people return from a long break, they wouldnt probably know about the ongoing fuel embargo and the news that Samura is granted trading rights within Bretonia and much more. Outdated posts can be deleted on request fot easier navigation.
