If so, how much did it cost?
In RTW, it seemed that "every man had his price," meaning that, when your sleazy diplomat approached another faction's general with an underhanded and sneaky offer to change sides, the only thing that determined whether the answer would be yes or no was the size of your bank account. Simple: if you had enough $$, the answer was yes, and if not, the answer was no.
I tried my first bribe when I had about 500,000 in the bank. The target was a neutral faction's general, and the answer was a resounding "no."
So I waited until I had about 1,500,000 in the bank, and tried once more, again with a neutral faction's general.
Still no dice.
Well, I thought, maybe I'm aiming too high. Let's take a run at that rebel general that just spawned in Germany a couple of turns ago. This should be no problem. In RTW, I used to be able to buy rebel generals for about 40,000. They were a dime a dozen.
Imagine my surprise when he told me where I could shove my dirty little offer.
So, what's the deal? How much is it going to cost me to finally buy a couple of generals to replenish my depleted family? What am I doing wrong?
