AI help -- how do I make one NPC faction win?

[Garbad]

In my campaign, several NPC factions have stalemated against each other. I want one side to win and gain control over the entire region. How can I make this happen? Thanks.

You could use forced diplomacy to give one faction loads of money/regions, so they are more powerful. NPC is not-player controlled or something like that anyway.

Do you have a lot of money? If so sent spy's and diplomats - locate there next engagement, something like 2 stacks vs 2 stacks with 3-4 units on either side as backup. Bribe away the stacks of the faction u want to loose, 75% of the time they have stacks walking about without generals and its relatively easy. If u follow it for a bit and repeat it can have dire consequences for that faction in question. U could even go as far as bribing poorly defended towns away and demolishing the builds so it quickly rebels. If that doesn't give the desired effect and you are determent yet without funds use the mentioned Forced diplomacy.

Agree with general brittanicus , forced diplomacy , make them give you regions and give them back to the faction you want

How does one force diplomacy?

This is where I use cheats to power broke factions I want to see grow strong; in the case of Rome I give the Germans and Pathians a lot of cash

Doesn't this tend to mess up the game if you do it too long? I remember doing this to Parthia in vaniila when they had only one region (and thanks too me MILLIONS of cash) and I noticed that other factions money had also started to soar after a while

I can sort of agree with you , I gave the Selcs alot of gold before and the Gauls became the richest nation the turn after ! This happened ages ago however

Damn I would love to see that. I prefer a lot of different factions instead of 1 big superpower. Gives more room for diplomacy. I hate to play just battle after battle against an opponent with 30 stacks filled with the same units.

When you want to use force diplomacy , check if he is installed : when on campaign map , press escape , game options , reset advisor , ok , back to your game , move your diplomat to speak , when the page of discussion is open , make a proposition ( to give you territories .. ) then pres the ? Button on the top right then press the " show me " button on the adviser and then click on the " make the proposition " d they gonna accept , re do EVRYTHING each time ypu want to use force diplomacy : once you have clicked on the make proposition button you'll have to redo it
