Field of Glory: Empires 1.3.4.0 (40980)

Balance and tweak to diplomacy

• Declaring a client state does not prevent getting regions from them
• Allies loiter less in your home territory
• Can't get ships from the 'Give Special Units' diplomacy clause
• Validating a transaction returns you directly to the intro Diplomacy panel
• One-sided transactions will either increase (gift) or decrease (extortion) relationships
• AI will propose many less transactions
• AI Allies capturing a region formerly owned by another nation (legitimate owner in advanced diplomacy) will give it back immediately
• Can enter regions of a nation with whom you have a peace treaty (allows evacuating your army when stranded) – Human player only.
• If all your capitals are besieged (or lost), severe penalty during peace treaty
• You can now demand regions owned by the vassals of your enemy
• Having hold of an enemy region when making a peace deal makes the region cheaper
• AI Vassals don't give back regions to human overlord anymore
• AI more reluctant to be absorbed or client-state if the other nation is not bigger
• AI will value more money, metal or manpower if it lacks some, and value less if it has enough
• AI less interested in trading units if not enough money
• Small factions will be much less prone to send transactions (less spamming)
• Explicitly name winner and loser factions in clause tooltips
• Region Clause: Lowered significantly cost if at war
• Give Units Clause: Can only be done if neighbor (sea-neighbor ok)
• War control gives less penalty
• War exhaustion triggers more rapidly (emphasis on wanting to make peace faster)
• AI will want to make peace faster as War Exhaustion accrues
• AI will not propose a cooperation during a bargain if already allied
• AI will only demand or accept the Relinquish objective clause if neighbor
• Validating a transaction returns you directly to the intro Diplomacy panel
• Additional texts for Diplomacy (FRE SPA GER)
