A new plan!!!!!!!!

[Viking]

This reminds me. If the Greeks attack me, I plan to hit them so hard that they'll accept a protectorate status. Is there any point in making them a protectorate? Bear it in mind, I'm not going to pay them to become my protectorate. Also, can they attack you if they are your protector?

When they get your protectorate, you will get a great amount of their treasury immediatly and they`ll have to pay a tribute each turn, so there`s alot of profit there. They will not attack you, but they can break the alliance if you attack on of their allies.

Right, well everyone hates the Greeks so when they become my protectorate, I won't have to worry about attacking their allies...

Although, if they attack one of my allies, I might have to break the alliance. Ok thanks, I'm clear now.
