How is the making IA declare war in 1.2 patch?

from GalCiv2 Forums
i know in the 1.1 patch it was nearly impossible to call in some support or make an IA go to war with another IA.
even if i gave all my money and all my planets and ships he wouldn't go for it.

i played at crippling, the IA i wanted to declare war was stronger than the target, i had by far the most money, the biggest fleet and allot of planets, still he wouldn't go for it.
and oh yea we were warm with eachother.
so in my opinion that option became worthless, how is it in 1.2 patch?

It'd be nice if that was easier to do, I've had the same happen. They were even Hostile to each other!

Maybe you have to be more creative... Build a 20-move transport and zip it right into the middle of the one guy's territory. Then gift it to the other guy. That might set them off.

Hey, fun, I'll try that!

(We should still be able to pay them off, though.)

yea, its true that in the original game it was to easy, just pay them 2K money and they would go to war with anybody.
but right now i cannot even pursuade my ally to go to war for me even in the right conditions.
so the whole option became worthless
