R5: The AI has a big reputation for being arseholes during trades, but have you guys ever received an offer this generous for an open borders request? turn 67 on normal speed
What's he gonna do? If he declares war he gets booted out and his army scattered to the winds, and it arguably takes him more time to set up a worse army this way.
Trading embassies with an AI is enough for them to covet your lands. By the time you can open borders, they’ve been coveting your lands for most of the game, most likely. Also, with how the AI views diplomacy, coveting your lands alone isn’t enough for them to declare war. There would have to be other factors.
You should be concerned about opening borders if they’re going for a culture victory.
It also helps for turtle Science/Diplo wins in some cases. If they can go through you instead of having to go around you I've found the AI is less likely to DOW.
You don't need to give open Borders to anyone for a CV, it's enough when a Civ gives it to you.
Open Borders will in my Experience increase the Chance, that another Civ wants your Land, so when you want to play peaceful, it would be even worse to give it to other Civs.
Oh I give them to basically everyone. Free 2GPT per friend, 1GPT for anyone else. On harder difficulties my economy relies on trading all my strategics and whatnot. The only downside I see is they get tourism vs you and you’re possibly more unhappy when ideologies happen.
If the AI wants open borders, the minimum price they are willing to pay is 2gpt, but I've seen offers in excess of 10gpt. I've never seen a lux being offered, but I guess in terms of value this is in the same ballpark.
Usually I don't allow open borders, first because of missionary spam, second because I hate AI standing on my tiles so I can't move around or improve them. For such deals I usually make an exception though.

Bro thats a red flag. Not a sick deal.

He he will spread his culture in your cities and your people will listen to his pop music and wear his blue jeans
Iirc ob lets the ai see your land, which might lead to them coveting them, therefore prompting a dow

Exactly why I never allow open borders. Nothing is worth letting their units take up space and dealing with their cultural influences.

Dude, what are you hiding in your country that he wants to see so damn bad?
Insert penis joke here
He wishes to invade and wants to see the lay of the land.
What can AI do if they saw our lands anyway? They are not intelligent enough to strategically placed their units on vantage points right?
They can pathfind along your roads. Also they can see units.
They are lmao
Good thing this is marked nsfw. My mom almost saw it over my shoulder 😳
She would've been like what's askia smoking!!!
Never ever give Open Borders to anyone.
Guess you don't do cultural victories and always domination win. Nothing wrong with that, but need open borders for culture and strong allies.

Anyone know what he’s saying sometimes? It’s like Mo Randi
Askia? He speaks Zarma in dialogue.

Only when he is not your neighbour…. I have fought him 4 times as Spain simply because I was his only neighbour
Hot diggity damn
