Just put a big bounty on a nation they can quickly defeat, and suddenly you have given them a large cash transfusion (and never did a real bounty either.) I saw this quote in another thread, and thought it warranted conversation outside the scope of "get rid of bounties". Problem: bounties are limited in their value because the collection can be prevented through a blockade (either from a counter or the target) making the bounty useless. Solution: check against time instead of blockade to prevent most abuse: anyone who's war began before the bounty was placed cannot collect the bounty. Upside: bounties can be collected even if you're not winning everything. Abuse possibility: there is still the possibility to send substantial amounts of money through a blockade this way, but it would be delayed by a minimum of 27 turns which is more than enough for other people to compete for the prize. 2 Quote Hey Krampus, the signature edit is under account settings.
