Bribing enemy units/balance

[Xietor]

Yeah, it would be a simiar to seduction except:

1. it would cost gold:

2. it would target the commander AND his men.

3. There would be 2 possibles outcomes of a successful bribe

a. The bribed commander and whatever troops also took the loot, would have a combat in the same province they were bribed in or

b. if a connecting province was owned by the briber, they could "escape" to that now friendly province before the combat phase begins.

An interesting twist would be to have 3 bribe options:

1. cheap skate option, you pay under market price(and market price would consider the units exp stars), where your chances would be poor, ie you may get 4 crossbowmen out of 30 and the commander is insulted by your offer and attacks

2. a reasonable bribe, this has a decent chance to get the average commander and some of his men:

3. An offer only a fool would refuse: this would cost you a mint, but your chances of getting the commander and almost all of his 30 crossbows is very good.

There would be exceptions, prophets would be burning with religious fervor, and incapable of deserting for something as mundane as money.
