In God and Kings, you cant get research agreements without a declaration of friendship. The question is, how do I get the AI to accept a declaration of friendship so that I may get a research agreement? My current game settings are emperor difficulty, small continents, small map, with approx. 5 random leaders. Im constantly making trading deals with AI players, and some of them do show as being friendly towards me in the diplomatic screen. In the last game, around turn 200 in the game, none of them had any friendships, denouncements, or at war with each other. So nothing here I can do to increase their favor with me. However, they all reject any friendship agreements, and you have to wait at least 10-20 turns before you can try again.
What other things can I do to increase the AI favor towards me, so that they might accept a friendship agreement?
Thanks
