All my allies betrayed me

[albo g]

Whats the point of having allies when they all betray you as soon as you are neighbour with them. I am playing as armenia and i made alliance with all my neighbour, for a while it was going well but then the selucids betray me and attack, that wasnt so bad because i had enough allies and i though i would be safe, but then as soon as i am about to defeat the selucids my alliy pontus attacks me. I didnt attack pontus for a while because i wanted to defeat selucids first, when i took antioch my other ally egypt attacks me on the next turn and takes antioch but as if thats not bad enough my other ally parthia attacks me. even though egypt was at war with selucids sience the start of the campaign they only attack me and not selucid.
This took all the fun away whats the point of having allies when they attack you anyway. One ally betrayng me wouldnt be as bad but all allies at once, c mon would you call that realism.
this can only be a bug and a really annoying one.
Is there any mod that fixes this problem

Alliances have always meant nothing in the TW Games.

Both in Shogun and Medieval Alliances were temporary and once you go too powerful the AI would go into "Total War" mode where it threw everything but the kitchen sink at you.

The same thing is true in Rome once you do too well the AI will strike at you with whatever it can find... Even if the attacking faction is puny in comparison to the defender who is a vast superpower.

The AI just hates the human player and never passes up on an opportunity to attack you.

This is not really evident in RTW, as it was in Medieval. The AI doesn't have the tendency to gang up on you anymore, save the romans (their gangup is dictated by their alliances, so that's a moot point.)

Playing a Seleucid campaign I had my long term allies the greeks attack. I was actually quite pleased because it was the first time I have ever seen the AI blockade one of my ports.

That just is not true, in my experience.

i agree with Slyspy, every time i reach "March on Rome" status, i get attacked by all my neighbors regardless of diplomatic relationship. which is annoying, but i personally think it would be too easy otherwise.

I was also unlucky and every time I engage in a war with a neighbour, the next turn I have ex allies armies crossing my borders and declaring war to me!!!
This happened playing with Gauls and Chartage.
I assumed the AI have demanded my allies to declare war on me and gave them an amount of money.
but this should be improved.

Since the STW days I wonder, how come the AI don't attack each other at all, but just piling up huge enemies waiting for my coming. I think at least in RTW they do attack each other until I come - that's pretty satisfying already.

Somehow I found I am the arseh*le who always betray an AI alliance...
