How do you get protectorates?
Whenever I try they always say no, even though they have 1 city left, and I have my armies surrounding it.
offer them a tribute, then after that they pay it back. or you cancel the tribute after they accepted. then pay them 100 denarii or wait a turn for further negotiating.
ps after the first protectorate gaul, who i eliminated later, i became extremely rich. i'm am now at 1.4 billion denarii wich is the limit. at finances they say my treasure for next year shall be .15 billion denarii but it will never happen.
holy crap
even in MTW when I strung boats ringing the entire Mediterranean I didn't get near that amount. Insane. I remember the same kind of income being given to your protectorates from some strange place.... I guess this now occurs the other way around.
I mean I don't think that there's even 1.4B in the game's economy unless you played for a loooooong itme.
well if you get 100 million a turn you have 1.4 billion in 14 turns so it goes pretty fast
You sure you don't mean 100,000?
im playing as the selucids and have been trying to force the egyptians to become a protectorate, but its not happening even though im crushing all their armies and besieging most of their remaining cities. any suggestions?
no i mean 100 million
it goes an finance lik 1.4 billion this year and 1.5 billion next year
wait i'll make a screenshot
and how do i add them here
Havin a protectorate basically means gettin the income that that faction after the maintanence fees. This way you are getting a better deal with protactorates say in Egypt when u are based in Italy, because you dont get the capital distance penalty.
as i said above. pay them money in tribute and then after they accepted cancel the tribute or not and wait for them to pay it back.Quote:

To post an image here, you have to first upload it to some place that allows remote linking of images (like Photobucket). Then link to it from here by using [img] tags. So, for instance, [img]https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v478/Simetrical/Dacia.jpg[/img] (minus the bolding, which I needed to do so it wouldn't turn into a picture) gives you
https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v...ical/Dacia.jpg
Or, you could e-mail it to someone interested, and they can upload it for you. I'll do it if you want.

I can never get photobucket to work for me.

that's what i told him
to get a protectorate (vh,m) playing as julii. post 1.2 patch
the green romans were slapping the dacians around left and right and i was only obligatorily at war with them, i never actually fought the dacians. they send a diplomat my way and i ask them to become a protectorate and they say yes without any bartering. they have 5 provinces, and a strong military. i have about 7 provinces. so i figure, they agree because are not at war, and they are being beaten by another power.
later in the game i had beaten the brits down to 2 provinces, destroy basically all thier armies and was beseiging one of their 2 cities left. for them to agree to become my protectorate [senate mission], i had to give them back 4 provinces and 15,000 gold. i have about 30,000 in the bank left at this time. the next turn, i get a 100,000 boost to my treasure. but i check the financial graphs and neither the britons or the senate had money of that magnitude to be able to give as a gift to me. i just got a spike of 100,000 for no good reason. i check the financial graph a bit further, and the senate had about 15 turns back also gotten about a 100,000 spike, [which they quickly spent] that was way out of proportion to what everybody else was making. and they didn't have a protectorate. so there are definitely some screwy things going on.
well i got 100 million from 3 countries, sow each had to come up with 33 million a turn. that's impassible
100,000,000 what why where who
bug alert bug alert
what is going on with CA

ufffffffffff :dizzy2:
bad joke i can't stop laughing (sarcastic ofcourse)
