Why can't I help Allies / Request specific military help? (topic) I've played RTW lots and now ETW and I've noticed that both games seems to reduce alliances to little more than paper treaties that do little to effect the outcome of the game.

Diplomacy Secrets Revealed (topic) Basically the main idea appears to be this: cancel all alliances after giving that country a state gift, this prevents unwanted wars for you and diplomatic penalties at the wrong time. Next, get trade agreements with as many main nations as possible. ... |

Embassies and Diplomacy? PLEASE TELL ME IT IS A POSSIBILITY!! (topic) I have a question that relates to the diplomacy features of Empire.
