RISK

Why faction_set_enemy is rated Medium

This tool modifies diplomatic state by marking a faction as an enemy and removing them from allies. It is a reversible state change (you could presumably un-enemy them later), making it a Write operation rather than Destructive. However, the blast radius is medium since it can affect in-game relationships, potentially triggering hostile interactions or losing allied benefits across the game world.

From the tool's definition Mark another faction as enemy. Removes from allies if present.
