Transgression

[Petavian Belgae]

Is there a way to inform the ai opponent that he is on your domain like sending him a msge like the transgression one in RTW?
I just hate it when an army crosses my land and my only choises are to do nothing and hope he dosn't attack or to kick his ### out of my land.

[Asean]

Yeah, like send a diplomat to inform him that if he dosen't leave your province in 2 turns, you will declare war, cut trade etc.

[Fondor_Yards]

I really wished we could do this in RTW and M2TW, the fact only the ai could ticked me off.

[Petavian Belgae]

use a diplomat for that kind of stuf would'nt be bad.

[Sylver]

I wish.

[gpolonia]

Agree. Plus, if that army just sit there, you needed to keep an army nearby in case they decided to attack. Having the borders on the map, or a messade saying when an army transpasses would be good too.

[Spart]

Yeah, like in Civilization you can tell them to leave immediately..
But what's the meaning of military access then, if everyone can go where they want?
Usually I start preparing for war when large enemy army comes even near my lands. In 99% of the cases it means war. Hope it isn't quite so in Medieval 2. =)

I start preparing for war as soon as:

I see a diplomat try to bribe one of my settlements
I see a spy infiltrate one of my settlements
I see an assassin in my lands
An army gets anywhere near me


I confirm their intent by asking for an alliance; if they refuse, I invade. If they accept, I invade the other guy who just sent a spy and raise another stack for my "ally".



Yeah, diplomacy and AI in Rome pretty much sucks. Really badly.

Edit: although, in BI, Defeating one of 4 ERE stacks made the other 3 turn around and go home. So I only needed one stack defending the new Vandal homeland of Italy while the WRE was crushed.

Good idea!Right spoken!

[God-Emperor of Mankind]

Well according to the people that have played it so far, the AI doesn't won't move their troops over your lands unless they are actually gonna attack.
Also depending on what faction you are you can expect a crusader army to pass by.

[Petavian Belgae]

the only trick there was in RTW was sending a small force of one ore two units next to the enemy stack .
So mostly the ai attacked oremoved out of your land .

[edmont]

Can't they fix like Civilisation 4 in old time any such army inside your borders was considered hostile they destroyed farming and raped girls .As peasants paid you tax for protection you had to react!

[Petavian Belgae]

or let the armies pay tribute or ask them to do a mission for you (didn't the venetians do that in one of the crusade's?)

Right !

Dreams. Diplomatic options have only been slightly increased from what i've heared, but, it is mentioned that the campaign AI is a lot better, so who knows.

[Petavian Belgae]

aslong people have dreams they have hope

[Zenith Darksea]

This really annoyed me. One of your allies, already at war with five other factions and on the point of being annihilated, decides that they want an even bigger challenge and sends an army to hang around one of your minor cities until they can see an opportunity to siege it for one turn, before retreating again. Or alternatively they decide at random to blockade one of your ports. The AI in RTW was just so mind-numbingly thick.

i like the idea... but why dont CA do it? ... as fatr as i know there will be no option to do that.

[Petavian Belgae]

That why i wrote this.
i hope that Ca is watching not only this but most of the forus because there are good ideas in it.

Then we've only got hope they implent this into a patch or the next TW game, because MTW2 has (almost) reached gold status.
