Bribing Provinces

[Jxrc]

Bribing stacks of rebels makes the game too easy IMHO.

I am all for bribing besieged rebels to get the infrastructure intact but that's about it.

Cost for bribing rebels is ridiculously low while bribing other faction's army is extravagent. Should have increased the cost for bribing rebels and decreased it for other faction.

Made one campaign as the Sicilian where I fought almost no battle but bribed any rebel I could find .... Plenty of cash, valour 6 grand inquisitors and assassins made in Syria .... who needs an army ? Basically purchased the GH after I had assassinated the khan when he showed up in Khazar ... Had to fight battles againts the "unbribable survivors" but there were not that many of those .... Fun to do once but all that was very cheesy ....

In High, I really, usually make efforts to buy constantinople.... Really. Otherwise, I don't bribe much. (apart Wales as well, when you play French on early, that to make the English nervous)

But I remember the acquisition of constantinople when I playd the spanish. So satisfying!!! A lot of money... Good buildings... But when your king dies, the new usually goes there. Be careful if you can't connect with your boats (not enough boats or an enemy faction blocking your route...)
