"SlaveRaidRegardCost -50"

I've sent Slavers into neighboring territory twice.

The first game, the other country declared war immediately after the first slave raid on a city.

The second game, they didn't go to war right away, but they did start sending armies my way. I can't remember if there was an actual declaration, but I was under attack pretty quickly.

Much better than CTP1, I think...you could conduct slave raids there with little risk ("plausible deniability"?).
