I know the game is called total war, but this i more 'total war.everybody against the player'.īy recruiting assassin's and spies my rulers have a lot of dread, but even then my faction's reputation still stays thrustworthy. In the course of the 10 next turn both HRE and Spain betrayed me, and England also joined the fighting.
Last game as france: alliance with HRE, royal marriage with spain. I admit that i always make a fair amount of alliances in the beginning, but for the rest i never do things that are bad for my reputation: i don't loot conquered rebel settlements, i never declare war. The AI annoys me as hell, that's why i think that even Empire is sometimes better than medievall (at least you don't have everybody backstabbing you)
