Hi, i am new to Medieval and have a problem I cannot solve on my own.
Well, I checked the manual used the search engine in this forum and in the main hall but I couldn't find any info, whether it is possible to change relations to another faction from ally back to neutral other than having to choose allies when two of mine go to war.
Story is this:
I am playing England Early, and I wanted France right from the start. So I allied with the Germans and the Spanish.
It worked well. Now France is mine.
Now I want the Iberian penninsula. Spain is at war with Aragon. So I still side with spain and we finish of Aragon together. While doing that my spies take already care of spanish ambassadors and generals.
Ok Aragon is done, Spain is next.
Now, if I just attack, I break the alliance. Bad for my reputation. I would prefer to end it formally and then declare war.
Can an ambassador do that?
If I move him to spanish armies he will try to bribe. Is it different if I move him to the spanish king?
Also if I have neutral relations to another country: Attacking it will bring us to war but can I formally declare war first?
