I agree.  I love my proposal that in order to make an alliance, one 
ruler needs to travel to the other realm's capitol.  And then to 
maintain the alliance, a state visit needs to occur every few months.  
Also, if it were harder to message allies, it would be harder to call 
four friends to gang-bang realm X. 

I don't like the idea of intra-realm messages not being instant, but 
perhaps inter-realm messages could take one day to arrive?
