Okay, I'm starting to get a little more understanding about how diplomacy works in Civ 5. Basically, it seems the 4 major things that will negatively effect your relations are
1) Taking out a CS
2) Finishing off another civ (i.e. complete genocide)
3) Denouncing
4) Declaring war (seems like simply declaring war in the first place makes other civs wary of you)
But my question is, is there no way at all to repair your relations once they're tarnished?
In my current game, I've found myself in a situation where there are 3 civs who hate me, and all have pacts of friendship with eachother, and I'm in an alliance of 3 other civs who I have pacts of friendships with.
However, there's a 4th civ, that's technically on my side of the alliance. He has a pact of friendship with the other 2 that I do, but he's denounced me, and I him. This happened early on, before the pacts were in place.
Now it's starting to become a problem, because this civ is looking like he's going to start some trouble, and I'm not sure where the chips are gonna fall. Likely it's going to tear apart my alliance, and then the other alliance is going to cause trouble for us all.
So, is there any way for me to actually repair my relations with another civ, if they're at "Guarded" or even "Hostile"?
Seems kind of dumb if you can't. I mean look at the real world. One can hardly say that America and Britain have always been on good terms, and yet today they're eachother's closest ally. Surely there must be a way to repair relations with civs in this game.
