Diplomacy between factions

[Metaluis90]

Well, my question is: Is it possible to change the diplomatic stands between Ai's factions DURING the currente game?

You see... I started a campaign with Rome, and I'm constantly watching the other faction's expansions to prevent, among other things, the creation of superfactions or destroyed faction before their time. But there's something that bothers me. Parthia. They have been allied with the Seleucid Empire since the beginning of the game, and now, in the year 240 BC, I'm looking foward to start a war between them, and hopefully let Parthia expand properly. But I failed. I tried everything:

I allied myself with parthia and then attacked seleucid, but the only thing I achieved was to destroy their alliance.
Then I used move_character to place a parthian army near a seleucid army, then attack the seleucids myself, but it didn't work. I gave them money, to promote a agressive behavior, but nothing, they're stale, in their northern provinces.

Then I used add_population to the border provinces of the seleucid in order to make them rebels... but nothing, Parthia doesn't want to attack,

So I ran out of ideas, and I thought, "hey is there a way to change the diplomatic stance between ai factions?" I searched a while in the forums, but I found nothing.

Do you have any ideas?

Have you tried to give them an "attack faction: Seleucid Empire" demand and offer some money? Probably they will deny, but you can use force diplomacy to pass it

How does one use force diplomacy?

I'll try it, but in my experience, that command is crap

Been using the method described by GeoHitmanGR for 2 years now, 100% success rate. You must be doing something wrong to have that opinion

when you are ready to propose something, hit the ? on the top right of the screen and then click the show me how button on the adviser. Then propose as usual

That's how I kept the Thracians allive once to be a buffer state in-between me (as Macedon) and the Romans.
