    Icon10 Diplomatic nonsense?

    "Accept or we will attack, please do not attack"

    I mean c'mon, wtf? Everytime I've ever agreed and stuck to it I've just been attacked when the turn ends anyway. There must be a reason the AI diplomats do this, anyone know it?

    IIRC it has been happening since vanilla.
    I think it's about what the advice say.
    about interpreting diplomacy and acting as an early? warning for potential attacks

    Yes, that does make sense, but these morons attacked me the turn before, and I'm now about to lay into them in revenge, maybe it's because they are really weak and have virtually nothing to stop me?

    I think I prefer it when they ask for a peace treaty and then attack before the turn is over.
    "I, Pinkie Pie, declare that these treats are fit for a king, or a queen, or a princess!"
    "Me? Ruin? I'm not the ruiner, I'm the ruinee! Or is it ruinness? Ruinette?"
    "She's ahead of the litter all right. The pick of the litter. The cat's pajamas. Oh wait. Why would Applejack take some poor kitty's pj's? That's not very sporting of her."
    "More balloons! No, that's too many balloons. More candy! No, less candy. Ooh! I know! Streamers!"
    "Oh my gosh. Hold on to your hooves – I am just about to be brilliant!"

    I guess it's the very definition of an empty threat. By all means waste them.
