As you should be able to see in the savegame below the AI fails to meet other factions even though it shares borders and passes troops through each others lands. No single AI vs. AI war was declared in about 260+ turns so my guess is, it isn't just an UI issue in the foreign relations screen

-Also the AI offered to pay tribute several times in my game, but it's allways me that's paying(Altar for example in the save)

-Kraxis built two Palaces which I noticed after I conquered them. I built a third in my capital afterwards though it was already in the build queue before. Guess it's still two more palaces than I should rightfully have

-Shouldn't Magical Forging logically require Weaponsmithing not Blacksmithing?

-the AI doesn't seem to like upgrading heros to mages I only encountered warriors and assassins in my games so far, which really is a shame for souvereignes like Magnar or Ceresa. Guess that's due to the combatratings not taking spellabilities into acount yet?

-Could Sions maybe get the ability to use equipment like Henchmen? Right now I really don't know what use they have that late in game

-firebolts get too powerful for my taste in lategame, maybe switch the damage effects with soulburning?

Well that's about it right now of what I can currently think of and didn't find other posts about yet

I had  fun playing tonight, thanks for that

Cheers
