Let me rephrase that, lets say you own a city but its in a region thats owned by your ally. You should be able to create troops in your city. since its not a "foreign territory" but its your "allys territory"
The recently implemented trading system is a dissapointment. Its not a good idea to make players spend fuel to trade. Instead, the cost should be based on how LONG you have to wait to get your items from the trade, so that way, players can still choose to use fuel to speed it up. To keep things balanced, (so players aren't constantly giving friends weapons and resources) you should only be able to trade 4-5 times in a 24 hour period, any more trades and THEN fuel will be taxed.
