Bribing El Cid |
Lead | ||
|
I have been playing as Spain, and although its too late now because I killed him, I was wondering if anyone has succeeded in bribing el Cid. I would not be
opposed to cheating because historically he was fanatically loyal to king Alfonso of Castille even though that same king had him exiled. I wanted to bribe him
using the cheat "force_diplomacy accept" which various sites, including ign, have on their list of cheats, but it doesn't seem to work. Does
anyone know of a cheat that would force him to accept my bribe, or any other way to get control of him. Don Rodrigo "el Cid" is the national hero of
Spain and it is a shame for the Spanish not to be able to use him.

the Spanish faction isn't exactly the modern nation of Spain.
Ed Cid is both married and has high chivalry, so bribing is next to impossible. And many of those cheats posted on sites don't work |

actually, I've seen El Cid having high dread instead of high chivalry ... I think sometimes he has high dread and sometimes high chivalry, would that mean
he'd be easier to bribe when he has high dread ?

Actually, when you give yourself tons of cash (add_money amount) it's possible to bribe whole factions, and I bet El Cid would be delightful to spend his
time alongside Spain (or any other country for that matter) as long as you give him the gold coins he needs.

Maybe next time I'll try using the money cheat combined with an improved-by-cheating diplomat or princess. It makes me sad to have to kill him every time
I play as the Spanish. I know that the Spanish faction represents the medieval kingdom of Castilla-León but the historical el Cid, and certainly the epic
hero, maintained that he was King Alfonso's loyal subject even though Alfonso rejected his service and exiled him.

Yeah the Cid's case is like that of David who being an Israelite hero had to go fight for the enemy Philistines because of the evil King Saul.
Although some say that the Cid was an opportunist who fought for the best bidder... |

He appears to have been a curious mixture of chivalrous man of god yet also a bit of a renegade and mercenary.
Spanish historians maintain Rodrigo considered himself a vassal of the king and "respected his authority in an autonomous fashion". Read into that what you will :) |

I find that it's nearly impossible to bribe him if you don't cheat. Well, he's already 40 years olds. I don't know if that worth it to bribe
him anyway. Since he can die at the end of age as a general.
