    Happens all the time... most people interpret it as "Please leave us alone while we form up an army to kill your sorry behind"

    I have had so many diplomats approach me with that proposal it's untrue.
    Whatever faction, whatever position they are in, I'm guessing that they haven't been to their self assertiveness classes recently.

    One of the charming things about the old KOEI Romance of Three Kingdoms was your ability to kill an ambassador.

    You took a penalty in loyalty etc., but if the proposal truly was vile enough you did have an option that puts a red X to shame.

    They were pretty good games at the time. The one thing good about them (aside from building your own castles) was your military, political and agent powers were restricted. You could never spam endless armies or perform dozens of sabotage missions to screw up the AI. You slowly gained points that enabled you to recruit better units or do more missions but you'd still find yourself stretched. I'd like to see a similiar point system in TW for agents and diplomacy so I don't have hundreds of stupid characters to control.

    I hate the gauls they are consistetnly weak worthless and there are hordes of their worthless little warbrand armies lying around, but yea I had that once to "Please do not attack or we will attack" I was like what the hell that's saying your too weak to attack me, I just declined and conquered half of gaul


    then I started playing as the scipii and I find Carthage ALWAYS has those three provinces in africa, or at least the one named "Carthage"
