semi-rebelling?

**Mediolanicus** · 01-07-2008, 20:12

Every time I have ever bribed city or taken an undefended one, my garrison would be expelled the next turn, with or without the city rebelling. Sometime it kills the governor while doing that, but mostly not.
Anyway since I encountered this phenomenon in RTR, in RoP, in Roma Surrectum, in CTW and in EB (yes, I've tried quite a few mods in my time, but now I'm stuck with EB, the greatest of all mods!) I suspect it's a vanilla thing and not a script thing.

I can't remember if I ever encountered it with Vanilla itself though...
I play all my mods with BI, so maybe it's a BI "feature"?

hooahguy do you play EB with or without BI?

Yes, both the death of the general and the expelling of the garrison are a vanilla thing. For some reason, CA hardcoded that bribed generals die the next turn. It was added with some patch (1.5?). Only the bribed guy will die, don't worry about it happening to any real family members. And the expelling of the garrison just happens some times with bribed settlements. It is harmless and won't happen twice. Just move them back in and everything will be fine.

so even if i bribe a army with a general, the gerneral will die? that sux

It may be only the generals that are there when the game starts. A randomly spawning general may not die...

I think it depends on how good the general is, actually. Generals with loads of stars will always die, ones without any good stars/influence/management skill sometimes live.

That's right, they still die most of the time but those with with less skills are more likely to survive. IIRC I recall reading it was implemented to prevent the player cheating to bribe the best AI generals.
