No Ambition!

[Phoenix]

I have noticed that other civilisations have no ambition (at least on regent down). What I mean my this is that they do not want any territory from other civs. I am rome (the strongest civ on the map) and no matter what I do (continuous rash demands, etc) I cannot get anybody to declare war on me.

Does anybody know how to definetly make sombody declare war on you (or just a way of a war with out your reputation suffering) even when you are stronger than they are?

The one I prefer is trap a unit when it come on your territory but this strategy cannot be apply at any moments and since 121f patch the AI disband a unit trap on your territory during you demand : '' remove your unit or declare war '' .

or if you only want to not damage your reputation simply not doing any trade with the one that you want to go war and declare war in the diplomatic way and ATTACK!

By using this, you will have no reputation broken

Weaken yourself, disband all non-veteran units to a point your military adviser will say: you are weak compare to this guy( something like that) leave a city near there border with only 2 defender. Then they will see you as a weak one and they will declare war on you.Be prepare to counter attack fast.

I have the same thing going on, except I have 6 attacking me and 2 fighting for me. Yay for world wars!

they don´t disband them, the unit jumps to the next free square (which isn`t really true, the AI gets some very strange boni here!)

Just be really mean in diplo and put units in their(that is, the AI's) territory. When they demand that you remove the unit(s), say ''no'' and then they will declare war on you.

nope, it`s you who declares war on them then! And it`s you who takes the reputation hit, too! But then, the AI will often be the first to initate battle, and the rep hit for that is even bigger
