  • HUGE bug in game

    Ive been playing the game a bit and I found a very big bug. I searched the forums and no one has said anything about this yet, or at least used the term bug... but anyway

    The bug invloves you stealing everything you can possible get from another npc

    Heres how to do it
    1. Start a war with target
    2. Dont attack him/her, or if you do, dont win
    3. After 'loosing' the war for a few turns talk to them again (when you can)
    4. Goto trading, and offer to bury the hatchet
    5. If he wants you to give him something in return for peace, you are golden
    6. Clear the table, then add everything he can give you to his side, including all his cities, gold, whatever ( I have found that religious coversions or civic switching does not work all the time)
    7. The table should now show him giving you everything in exchange for peace
    8. Click 'bury the hachet' once again
    9. You should get a nice box saying that you can only give gifts to make peace, blah blah.
    10. And the npc says something along the lines of 'This sounds good to me'
    11. At this point, offer the deal (which hasnt changed at all) and pat yourself on the back, you just scored all his cities and gold for loosing a war!

    Yez. I've found this same bug and it was very profitable. And I thought it was just my good looks and charm bringing me the riches.

      Another example of disastrous errors with the diplomacy module.

          Several people (including myself) already posted this in the bug thread.

              Yeah, it's a bug alright - but it's easy to avoid. Just don't do it!
