The Daily Update at the Com

[Slaists]

truth be told I find the +100 rep helps alot in trade agreements, proctectorate agreements and alliances, but I haven't really found it helping peace treaties, but by that time I've normally taken a territory so that doesn't help and because of the black knight AI I just don't bother giving any territory back

Weird. I have not really encountered this extreme difficulty in making peace with the AI and I am playing on VH campaign difficulty. For example, playing as Prussia, I was at war with 7 factions at the same time, but I was actually fighting only two of them. For the heck of it, I offered the other five trade rights + peace (no cash, no land). All accepted...

Sure, there is a faction here and there, that's just stubborn to death. But that's alright.
