Your government will only collapse through revolt if you are in Republic/Democracy, though there will be an incident (ie war) in any government.
1. One's own Gov't is not a factor when revolting/subverting the enemy. If Bribing, your government will not affect the cost unless your are in Communism -- then the cost to bribe enemy units will go up if they are more than Distance=10 from their capital. This behavior is not intuitive, and is likely the result of a programmer screwing up the bribe forumula... you would expect the victim's (target of your dip/spy) gov't being in Communism to affect the victim's bribe cost, not your own Gov't being in Communism!If one's government is a Democracy, rather than a Republic, is it cheaper to incite revolt and subvert city? ... what exactly determines the price one pays to subvert a city? I would imagine that besides the size of the particular city, the city's improvements would also affect the price, but I could not come up with a consistent formula. Also, I noticed that if one subverts from different squares surrounding the city, the price will change...
I am sure that 4.10 in Info: diplomats and spies is valid, in other wordsOriginally posted by starlifter
BRIBING UNITS
...
D = 10 (maximum) if the target's government is Communism.
D = 32 if the target has no palace
You are correct; I went back to my notes and checked, then went to a test game just to make sure both your comment and my old notes were correct. Under Civ 2 MGE, 5.4,0f, it was confirmable. I also had 2 other errors in my original post concerning the formula and notes, and all are now corrected and check with tests.D = 10 (maximum) if the dip's/spy's government is Communism.
I think that D = 16 if the target has no palace..
It is strange, it works for me.Sorry SlowThinker, but that link is pretty much useless for me. It takes me to a site that contains a long "change log" type messages, but no link to actual information works.. it only takes me to "Page not found" links
Magic_gorter, you sent a link to the archive thread - its only asset is its last post links to the newer thread.It still doesn't work Slowthinker.....so I try to add a link to the thread I think you mention:
Diplomats and spies thread
It is not possible.You might try to edit the thread ...and put the downloadable info in the FIRST post if possible.
(This post is not important)
It is not possible.
When i made it it was possible to edit existing attachment but it was impossible to add an attachment to a post without.
So I added an empty attachment to post 1, because I expected later i might want to add something important there.
But now the forum works conversely - i cannot change attachment of post 1, i can add new attachments.
