a dumb question, but wouldnt force diplomacy screw things up? for instance im at war with Macedon and when its Macedonian turn its player sends a diplomat and asks for a ceasefire demanding 10k and my side obviously agrees (provided i got that much money) while i wouldnt. or even worse agrees to become a protectorate. i just dont get how will it work and whats the benefit of FD in a game played by Human players? its only needed to bend retarded, suicidal AI, is it not.
