The purpose of a fish trap is to catch fish, and when the fish are caught, the trap is forgotten. The purpose of a rabbit snare is to catch rabbits. When the rabbits are caught, the snare is forgotten. The purpose of words is to convey ideas. When the ideas are grasped, the words are forgotten. Where can I find a man who has forgotten words? He is the one I would like to talk to.
Not sure, tbh. But I remember that sometimes I do fail in bribing a rebel stack, and it says someting about my diplomat being unable to bribe the guy because his loyalty was too high. VnV's involved? Dice roll?
Rebel generals do have a loyalty rating. However, as a general rule, it will almost always be zero. Generally, the only rebels with loyalty ratings are those who are governors of certain provinces- for example, if Constantinople is lost to rebellion, the game will still assign the governor title to one of the rebels, thus giving the +4 loyalty the title bestows.
It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.
Aye and power of the army. Even rebels can occcationally have loyalty (they got 0 normally), making them quite expensive to bribe.
Dice roll, but loaded, atlleast by the stars of the emissary and probably the bribing v&v as well. Loyalty seems to only affect the size of the bribe.
We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?
