Honorable Combat Agreement
A resolution to improve world security by boosting police and military budgets.
Category: International Security
Strength: Mild


Description:

For the Purposes of this Resolution:

"Champion Warfare" is to be definied as any combat between a limited number of Military Personal, the outcome of which will determine the outcome of conflict.

AWARE that Champion Warfare has fallen into decline due various factors

UNDERSTANDING that a major fallacy in Champion Warfare is the lack of certainly that both sides will agree to accept the outcome of the duel

ACKNOWLEDGEING that Champion Warfare enables conflicts to be settled via military means without significant casualties and collateral damage

REMARKING that the practice of Champion Warfare also promotes an increased standard of living for soldiers

BELIEVING that Champion Warfare additionally promotes national solidarity by further enabling heroic and noble portrayals of Warfare.

CONVINCED that the proliferation of Champion Warfare will increase international security

UNDERSTANDING that Champion Warfare is not a practice that some states are willing to make use of

SEEKING therefore to reach a compromise that promotes Champion Warfare without forcing it onto unwilling nations;

The General Assembly,

REQUIRES that all Duels of Champion Warfare that are approved by both member states involved be honored.

ENCOURAGES states to consider the use of Champion Warfare

Yes, I know it's a weird quirky Proposal, but I think that it's actually fairly reasonable.
So what do you think?

Nice proposal, but I doubt that anyone would vote for.

It is without a doubt unique. I rather like it but it needs some work. You acknowledge several issues and problems with Champion Warfare but have a week MANDATES clause. How is the mutual agreement to be enforced (and keep in mind the WA can't have an army, peacekeepers, police, ect.)? That section needs to be expanded. Also consider adding "fluff" such as "Encourages nations to do X, Urges nations to do Y, ect.

Also needs a category strength, I recommend Mild.

Edit: It should be noted that it will have a hard time passing, but most proposals do. Many ambassadors will think this is a joke proposal, but if handled right (and I'm already forming a plan) it can be kept from being laughed out of the room. Passing, well, it all comes down to the right TG campaign.

The issue of enforcement is a hard one. I went with Mandates because it seemed less forceful then Requires, but it's effectively the same, in that the World Assembly can't actually force member states into complying with it. But the larger issue I'm working on is how to make this proposal seem actually important. I'm currently going with simply adding fluff regarding how the proposal's passage will encourage more nations to use Chamption Warfare, but theres a bit of a arguementative fallacy in there.

Wondering: what could be the different kind of duels ? Can I use my new anti-armour railgun against the opponent ?

Amusing idea of a man with a sling dueling a Stealth bomber.

Tightened somethings up. Still trying to figure out a good way to impliment enforcement.

Added an additional line. I'm still stumped on how I can improve the enforcement.
