Hi, has anybody found a way to negotiate an alliance with one or all of the following provinces:
- Carthago
- Dacia
- Narbonensis
- Parthia
- Sarmatia
- Scythia (is this a bug when you go "agrressive", "offer alliance" and no matter what tribute you require they'll reject your offer or are there any special circumstances that have to be fullfilled in order for them to accept?)
Thus far I managed 20 alliances, even with Cyrenaica. For that one I found a tip on a spanish page which gave some requirements to ally with Cyrenaica:
- you've got to have Cilicia (by alliance) before
- you have to have plundered before and at least one rebellious province
- then you make an alliance with another province (anyone) and in the very next turn you go into Cyrenaica with a bigger army than theirs (they have 2940 men) an go "diplomatic", "diplomatic", "offer alliance"
Seems like a great deal of requiremnts and I don't know if all are really necessary but I did as it was said and I could make an alliance with them.
That leaves the 6 aforementioned provinces as the only ones I didn't make that far. So, if anybody has a clue how to make them work it would be very nice if you could post your suggestions here.
Thank you in advance.
By the way - has the "ultimatum" response ever been useful anywhere? Not for me, but I think the programmers did put it in for reason...
