So I usually keep a somewhat small army, positioned at key locations which results in a lot of wars when people don't like me as they believe I'm weak.
When they do go to war with me I simply boost my army for a bit and take care of the attack as the AI is really bad at warfare.
In my ongoing match however (12 civilizations - archipelago - prince) I have no key positions and the enemy just swarms me. The wars are really hard to survive.
I'm playing as Polynesia. I'm allies with: America, Egypt and Siam.
America and Egypt share pretty much the same enemies with me while Siam is allies with half of the enemies.
Currently at war with the Inca, Spain, Arabia and Russia. Spain attacks me from the west, the Inca from the North, Russia from the East and Arabia from the south but he's pretty much dead with only 2 crossbowmen, 1 cannon and 1 production city left.
Siam is fighting with the Inca as well (as he lives North-East of me) and is pretty much losing as the Inca is the runaway civ of this match (I'm barely in lead on technology but he has more land and a bigger military).
Now there are quite a few civilizations that are neutral or only guarded.
Can I bribe them into going to war with my enemies? How much would it cost?
Also how much do you need to pay for somebody to stop fighting against an ally? I really don't want Siam dead as he's a valuable trade partner.
