One of the major criticisms of conflict models has been that they fail to include such communication terms as threats, promises, credibility, and messages. This paper details an analytic model of the conflict situation which defines these terms with action alternatives, value and perception functions, and termination expressions. The utility of the model is demonstrated by the inclusion of new concepts, the description of a fictional conflict, and the deduction of new relationships among a set of axioms.
