    How does one get a submissive pactmate? Sometimes in a war when I'm overwhelming them, they'd offer to give me all their energy and techs, everything including the kitchen sink, I'm pretty sure that this is a clear case of submissive pacthood.
    That is the way to get a submissive pactmate.

      IIRC its pretty clear. They will say something like "My defeat is abject and total, please have mercy, yadda yadda"

        The dead can not pay their restitutions. Enslave them and have them repay their debt by fighting your wars while you profit from the arms sales.

It works the same in any country." -- Hermann Goering

          When you put it that way, I can't argue. Vichy France just came to mind.

            I've had submissive's turn on me...but that's usually when I commit a "major" atrocity, or if I've messed with them too much.

            I'll usually keep the University around for their technological goodies and I'll keep Morgan Industries as my personal piggy-bank. Just threaten him and he'll give you a smackload of credits. As for the others, I tend to squash. The Spartans won't do much if you tell them to invade your enemy, neither will the PK's. Gaians only send token forces, but won't do any REAL damage. Believers usually turn on me.
