What the AI does with one city left (needs looking into)

[jli084]

Im playing as a vassal of Vlandia. We've been in a long war with the northern empire and it's been going well. The northern empire is down to their last city, and it is far from our lands. I figured that Derthert had it handled, so I just stayed at home smithing and chasing large bands of looters. Problem is that the war just keeps going. The enemy has no proper army, but since we're at war Derthert doesnt declear on anyone else. I started to feel bored with the lack of a proper challenge, so I decided to head over to the northern empire to see what they were up to. Turns out, not much:

Im pretty sure most of the flags above the city also represents lords. They seem to be cycling in and out of the city. Maybe lords should abandon a faction at a certain point. They could either move to another faction or turn peasant (seeing as they've got no lands or income).

They came back out:

30 prisoners, all lords, and they are not close to done:

I had to get out of there do to half my army being dead or injured...

The whole game needs looking into, such is the way of early access.

Sure is. As is giving feedback on what isnt working well. Hope this gets a fix somewhere down the line

In my game Derthert made peace with Western Empire when they were reduced to having one town only, he could have finished them switfly but no. And they continue to exist by not declaring war on anyone or anyone on them.
