Emperor
I'm currently playing Russia in a large Earth map. I control all of Europe and European Russia. I am fighting a war against Rome, who currently only controls West Africa. I took and razed the nuisance cities he planted in my Europe, and also his North African cities. Rome is also at war with a very powerful Mongolia, whom I paid to attack Rome (didn't take much since they'd been at war before.) Mongolia took his central African cities and CS allies. Rome even used to be at war with America (who controls the Middle East and is also losing to Mongolia), but they made peace. I sold one of the Roman cities I captured to America.
Anyway, the issue here is that Rome is starting to ask for peace, as well they should after I've taken five cities from them. In fact, Rome is down to three cities. However, the only peace they will accept is a simple peace treaty with nothing else offered. When I talk to them first, Augustus says "I know when I'm staring defeat in the face", yet he never offers anything in exchange for peace. When I ask "what will it take to end this conflict?", he only offers peace for peace, and when I place additional demands on his side of the table, he rejects them.
This is despite the fact that both me and Mongolia could completely wipe him out singlehandedly, and even if he makes peace with me, he still has Mongolia to deal with. Mongolia was already damaging the city of Rome itself, last I checked.
I should also mention that this war is the first war Rome and I have had, and that it started when he backstabbed me after millennia of being friendly.
So, under what circumstances does an AI not offer anything for peace in a war it's clearly losing? Although Rome is in dire straits, he still had around 300 gold and was making around 50 gpt last time I checked. So it's not that he has nothing left to give me.
