Defenseless player

[Łukasz Jakowski 13,395]

If a player tries to exploit the game by having no army or minimal army to boost income, nearby AI civilizations will notice and identify the player's civilization as weak.

That's great, AI becomes more and more intelligent, isn't it @Unity ?

just kidding Unity

Amazing improvement! From what level is an army counted as "minimal"?

Edit: And what about very tiny civs (like microstates) with small number of provinces?

Czy SI wie to automatycznie, czy musi zrobić przeszpiegi, żeby się tego dowiedzieć? A jeżeli tak jest, to czy jest szansa na to, że się tego nie dowie?

Low-cost and low-tech army to fit the limits being an exploit against anti-exploit or AI was prepared versus that too?

Smarter AI is always a win. Will nuking be balanced as well? Saw that the AI would spam nukes in the 1000 year timelapse.

I think vassals can have no army, since they're going to be protected by the lord in exchange for money and manpower. Anyways, great addition🙂

It should count alliances and such so that in Modern Era half the world won't get steamrolled in span of 2 ingame years

Ok

If I send all my troops on an expedition, will the AI consider my nation weak?

If the AI has the ability to detect this, will the feature of not revealing the army of the stronghold still be effective?

For the 1st question I think what he meant is by not having at army at all, the game will know when you have no units then the ai will detect you as weak and attack you. But if you have units that aren't on your country the ai will probably know you aren't weak since the game detects you have units.
