    Default Is there any resistance to bribery?

    Interesting, what affects on result of bribery? Any mercenaries diband very easily, while common troops - not.
    But I felt a real misfortune when 2x20 packs of my peasants, which were moving to a small town for migration purposes, were bribed by a Julii diplomat... When my own diplomat tried to bribe that terrorist, he refused. And my assassins also have very small chance of killing him.
    So, how to defend agains bribery? Especially if according to diagram Julii have about 280000 gold at this moment.

    Protect armies and cities with your own diplomats. That's really the only way. The better your diplomats you protect with, the harder the enemy diplomats will have to work. Of course, the more influence the enemy have, the harder your diplomats will have to work.

    Use your diplomats to bribe theirs, train a good assassin (or a few good ones), and keep the best troops that you would rather not lose under the flag of a good influencial general.

    Thanks. Interesting. Indeed I will use diplomats and other agents to escort my troops. But what agents are more resistant to bribe then? Diplomats, assassins or spies? If they all have 3 bonus points.

    In the game I play it's very hard for a diplomat to improve in Influence while spies and assassins seems are able to grow quicker.

    PS Using general for escorting peasants was too "expensive" I thought.

    Send a high-level general to command your elite troops. This is the best way to prevent bribery.

    The point here is the migrating peasants are not elite troops, and this guy (probably) can't spare a general for that. I think diplomats are the best choice in this matter, because they actually have influence, and assassins and spies don't have that.

    There are also certain retinues and traits that can increase cost of bribery to one of your generals, which means they are less likely to be bribed.
