It looks like the previous dev diary is tackling some of the worst aspects of the warfare system. Patch 1.4 is going to address convoy raiding, and patch 1.5's open beta (which releases at the same time as 1.4) is going to look into merging frontlines. Plus the addition of new diplomatic sways, reverse-sways, and some changed behavior regarding imperialistic AI, it's all looking like some excellent changes are coming down the pipeline.

These changes are really needed too. I want to love Victoria 3, but imho it just feels like it came out a full year too early. Too many things getting in the way of the satisfying economic sim they managed to build. Hopefully 1.4 and 1.5 aren't too far away, and they're successful.
