I attacked an AI from an Ally's territory, the AI came after me and ended up "surprise attacking" my ally. Not exactly what you are looking for but its a way. Fun to get AI's fighting each other this way.

Provoking an AI to attack you.
Has anyone had luck in provoking an AI player to attack you? I am trying find a way capture lands without being number one on the evil doer list.

The only way I know of to provoke an AI to attack is by being high on the evil doer list. You could minimize the impact of starting the war by proper use of trade embargos and war declarations...giving enough notice and what not.

You increase your popularity (and country's morality) by not be at war with so many countries, giving ROW to all AI countries early in the game, and buying their products in the market. When going to war- use trade embargo, and 24 hrs later declare war ...

the 24 hour waiting period has been done away with. Declaring war has the same result on reputation now regardless of going in increments or all at once.gusv wrote:

as for getting the AI to attack you, about the only other way is to trick them into trespassing. You might invite them to tea, revoke their passport, and get them to declare war in protest, but setting that up is difficult as they don’t accept many offers for tea.

Same happens to me. I had an ally do that and I ended up accidentally attacking his troops... but I didn't restore relations. lmaoCuursed1 wrote:
