Just one more turn...
I don't see it in the CS screen or the AI screen.
Is it only available under certain circumstances?
Is it only available under certain circumstances?
Afaik a player can only do it if he's allied with a CS.
I am allies with Florence and my three options are :
give gold
give unit
declare war
Maybe a cs can only be pledged from a maximum number of civs? 2 maybe?
When you can click it, its on the CS menu.
You have to have some influence with the CS, but there's some other restrictions.
But really I doubt it enters into AI consideration when their deciding who to send money to / or go to war with. It's not worth any influence points to pledge it either.
I'm pretty sure that there's also some proximity factor based on how close the City State is to neighboring AI's.Pledges of Protection are rather a strange feature, if you have one of the Unofficial Patch/Vanilla Enhancer (which lists all Civs who pledged protection), and you observe what's going on you with the world (in vanilla game) you'll notice few things
- Pledges expire after a single turn
- Pledges appear WHEN you don't do it yourself (observed in Unoffical Patch/VanillaEnhancer)
- Every AI seems to pledge protection the moment they meet a new City State, yet you can only pledge once you reach a Friends status.
