you should be able to acquire a supply drop through diplomatic means not just going to war like moving a unit to the supply drop when you have Share map or ROW and if you acquire the province through a trade.

Their purpose is to incentivise you to declare war on your neighbours.
You can always try negotiating with neutral/allied states, asking them to allow you to temporarily declare war and take the province and drop. You can then allow them to recapture the province, restore peace, and it's polite to offer them half the loot from the drop (unless it's a blueprint) for their trouble.
(You can also claim that you want to do this if you need an excuse to backstab them. Not that I've ever done that of course.)Her Ladyship Aragosta

Pan-Asian is a better doctrine than Axis when played correctly and you cannot change my mind.

That's my point if you are able to negotiate access or the acquisition of a province you should be able to get the supply drop without going to war.

No, because technically that negotiation is loophole abuse. The point isn't to give you free stuff, it's to make you go to war with people you might not otherwise. The reason why it's possible to get it under controlled circumstances where both parties agree to it is because the game can't distinguish between regular attacks that get called off early and attacks that were agreed to in order to claim a supply drop.Her Ladyship Aragosta

I feel the real loophole abuse comes from Negotiating a war just to acquire a supply drop. Being able to negotiate to acquire a Province, ROW or share map Requires a certain amount of trust with with the individual involved.

And negotiating to actually start a war with someone takes just as much trust, since it's very easy to abuse permission to do that.
I'm not really sure where you were going with that comment actually. Or, as a result, where I'm going with this one.Her Ladyship Aragosta

I guess my point is you should not be punished for having a solution to acquire a supply drop other then war.

I don't know about that myself, I feel it conflicts with their purpose, but I'm going to leave it at that since we evidently feel differently on that point.Her Ladyship Aragosta

I'm on the lady's side of this one. People play way to passive and peaceful. it is a war game ffs, invade your neighbor, don't just stand around until you're so bored that you fall inactive! If supply drops are ANY help at all to create conflict, make them obtainable by war only.When the fake daddies are curtailed, we have failed. When their roller coaster tolerance is obliterated, their education funds are taken by Kazakhstani phishers, and their candy bars distributed between the Botswana youth gangs, we have succeeded.

The intention behind Supply Drops was indeed to promote more active war declarations and to give players some strategic choices.

Supply drops are fine. No changes needed imho.
