Liberate option confirmed in NTW

Or of course, you could loot the town and burn it all to ash...

Great news, along with a Join War, Break Alliance and Trade Embargo option in Diplomacy looks like we have mmore options than just paint the map

good news

I wonder if these new states which are created will be able to act completely independently, and even grow and expand to take over nearby rivels, or even rebel against the people who liberated them?

Good news indeed.

Absolutely outstanding! I am almost afraid to believe it. Please don't disappoint us CA.

Lovely news. This feature was sorely lacking in Empire.

great news, thank you ca for a diplomacy which seems greatly improved

Great news! I wish someone implemented this feature in ETW.

It`s too soon to go leaping and celebrating and thanking yet.

Good God Humble, I hope you get paid to be this negative. What is the job market like for professional parade rainers?

Humble Warrior is always needed with his words of hope and optimism.

True, we need to see how is this system applied to the rest of the game. Sure, this game feature might be nice, but it will be useless if the AI is retarded and couldn't make full use of this system.

The conquered city should request to be reinstated to power with an offer in the diplomacy, such as reinstate our government and we will join your war and trade, and these options could be negotiated. Depending on how generous conquerour is the chance of sticking to diplomatic promises.
Good to hear it's in though

i think it will be missionlike (capture these settlements and if you want you can create state ..... which will be your protectorate or ally so you can just programme the ai to always accept it)

I dunno, the only question over a feature like this should be whether its in or not, since the pieces are all already there(emergent factions are already in Empire, as are protectorates) - so I'm comfortable being happy/thankful already. As far as execution, that'll depend on the new AI - hopefully we'll see protectorates acting in accordance to their protector's goals, rather than just paying them tribute every turn. Protectorates (especially liberated ones, which are essentially satellites) should function as an arm of the protector - not as a leech.

We can liberate factions!!!

good news indeed

Awesome! And VERY unexpected!

Nice feature.

Don't worry Poland, I will save you!

Duchy of Warsaw anyone?

Wonder how many of these will be possible to create:
