Buying Clans is too expensive

[Mongle]

So after a some time playing and founding my own empire, i tried to bribe some clans to join my cause.
After persuading one of the clanleaders(Olek), i had to bribe him to actually join me. I had around 150k Denars at that time and an Inventory prob. worth another 30k.
After givin him all of that, the bar that indicates how much i still have to give him is barely at around 10%, meaning that the Clan would cost me ~1 500 000 Denars.
That is a little too much isn´t it?

Why should a distinguished clan of the Sturgians betray their compatriots and join some weirdo who's founding a rogue state?

 

[Brynjahr]

You don’t have to give them all of that by the way, I thought that too until I offered someone 10k and hey accepted when he wanted 500k and my inventory

That bar doesnt mean anything, they will accept the offer when the offer button is green and clickable, I married some chick for only 300 denars and convinced a tier 5 clan to join for 11k

I think its broken rn.
Also, 150k really isnt that much cash given how much 1 settlement like Makeb + its villages can make you every day (easily 7k+).

When I tried to marry Ira the bar was completely blacked out with 200k there. Figured that was that, but when I hit auto offer it threw in 6k and got accepted, lol. Basically the second the button turns green it's a go, no matter what the bar looks like.

Half the time it costs nothing. It can be expensive given the clan can just leave your kingdom a few months after it joins after you pay it 80k to join.

How the hell do you bribe a clan to join you? Is this a random chance after you try to persuade them? Or a completely separate thing? If it's a barter thing I can't see it, everything is greyed out for me.on bartering. This would make my life so much easier!

How did you do it man? Where did you have this option?

you can ask a clanleader if he likes his liege, then you can try to convince him that you´d be better.

Yeah but bribe them with money?

 

[JohnyK97]

Sometimes they ask for money after persuasion check, but that cost is just ridiculous, usually between 100k-200k in my game
