I started a campaign on VH/VH as the English with the intent to butter up Spain for an alliance, but my gifts are not working so well. I gave Spain 100 florins per turn for 10 tunrs in one negotiation, but on top of that I have been giving them single gifts of 1000 florins each turn. I managed to get our relations to amiable, but after 5 or 6 gifts of 1000 florins on top of tribute, I expected relations to go up much faster. Is there some sort of a cool down period? For example if you give a gift of 1000 fl, will the same gift on the next turn not be as effective? Are there and tips or exploits I can take advantage of here?
