Bribe allies armies?

[Johannes Victor]

I read somewhere that it is possible to bribe allied armies. I tried this playing as the Julii. At the beginning of the game I wanted to hamper the Scipii advancement on Sicily, so I tried to bribe an army on the island, which didn't have a family member, but the bribe option didn't show up on the diplomacy menu. Can someone help me out here?

[Rasui Runihura]

I think whoever wrote that was wrong. As far as I know, you cannot bribe allies.

[Axeman]

Try it with a non-roman faction, I believe you can but you can't do anything openly detremental against your roman allies.

[MattErickson]

Yeah, you can't do anything against your roman allies until the civil war. I'm pretty sure you can't bribe allies though.

[Scutarii]

I think you can only assassinate your Roman allies, no bribing them. But I think you can bribe normal allies.
