I hear everyone getting fantastic deals with the computer for tec, but the computer doesnt seem to want to trade on a per turn basis with me even when I have a shiny reputation.
The computer is willing to trade a couple of hundred gold up front but then is not willing to trade even 1 gold per turn with me. This is in civilization gold on monarch and emperor difficulty.
I know computers wont trade gold per turn if youve got a black mark next to your name from breaking a per-turn agreement but I am having this situation even before I have had any other agreements with the computer. They are polite status, Ive never crossed them in a deal, Ive tried giving them ROP maps etc before to make them happy, have a embassy with them, buttering them up with gold gifts, tried all sorts of things. And they just seem unwilling to trade on a per turn basis.
So in the eng I am forces to settle for something like 26gold upfront for a Tec if Im lucky. I think they are all very stupid computer players if they wouldnt even accept a tec for 1gold/turn, (20 gold total) while they are willing to pay much more upfront. so how do you guys get somehting like 20 gold/turn? Are there any tricks that Ive missed to get them to be willing to trade on a per turn basis?
please forgive me if this is already addressed somewhere in the forums, i read pretty much all the posts in the acadamy and a lot of the forum to check if it has already been addressed.
