Hi,
Is it possible to give military units to the AI (like in CIV2)?

I wish it was because then the diplomacy would be close to perfect.

Technically it's possible with SLIC (Alexander the Great scenario already uses it in a primitive form a few times), but I'm not sure if the diplomacy model can handle it: it might be tough for the AI to determine what a good deal is and what a bad one (not even sure on how to tie it into the diplomacy model actually, but I think it's possible).

I must say that I really miss the "Bribe Unit" thing that you had in Civ. Maybe that's been taken out because players such as myself used to buy the entire enemy armies.

But I belief that Civ already had an effective counter measure and that was that you could only bribe single units, not whole stacks (or even a single unit stacked with one other).

Hmm, but maybe this needs to go into the CIV3 wish list, rather than here.

Why not! Not only diplomacy will be perfect, but it will help your allies civ to fight your enemy civ. As i don't like fact of bribing enemy units, i think it will be ideal to buy or sell units from other civ. Big mistake that the designer didnt think of this.
