Default Re: Wisdom on Pyrithum killing?

put lots of scouts in their area and if you find any provinces that are weakly protected then drop troops on them (sneak armys, call of winds, call of wild, horder from hell, arouse hunger, and many many more). If you take it and cant hold it then just crank the taxes to 200% and take another. If you can drive the unrest over 100 then it will be worthless to him for awhile even if he does get it back.

Break up their large armys by taking out commanders. Force them to leave large amounts of troops behind and bring them up later when they can replace the commander (assassins, seeking arrow, disease, sending in kakazes with things like Bow of Beotulf that makes mages unable to lead summons)

Send them things like that bladder on a stick (if their leaders arent protected from poison) They attack anyone and the leader uses it poisoning himself and all leaders near him, There are other items that can cause havok also.

Force him into war with someone else. One thing Ive found useful is to send any stealth units that can cause uprisings or preach to his borders on the OTHER side of you. If he borders someone else then send to both of them. Force him to beef up troops on someone elses border. Eventually, Im not sure if its mistrust from seeing a buildup or an attack of opportunity, (Ive never been able to see who starts it) war will break out.
