ok, here's the situation, Yang has swollen up Miriam and was about to do the same to Deidre when I invaded him. I'm playing Spartans and I already eliminate UoP. I have a pact with Morgan and a truce with the Gaians, while Yang has a pact with Lal. In a couple of turns later I already captured about 25 bases out of HIVE's 50 odd bases.(Choppers RULES!) Yang's technology is at 40% CONQUER while I have it at 70%. Yang already lost 130 odd units(land+sea+air). Lal is suffering because he is supporting Yang. So I demand a surrender and got a pact with Lal. Next I do the same to the Gaians and succeed. The next turn I contacted Yang but he still won't surrender?!!! So I demand all the other factions to pronounce vendetta on Yang. Even with all the odds against Yang, he just won't surrender or even a truce!!! (I mean what's with the old man????)
He probably is too ashame to admit he's lost.(Yang pronounced the vendetta on me first because I wouldn't give him "3654" credits!! Yeah right)
I'm using DEM/PLAN/KNOW in SE. So what can I do to make Yang kneel down before me so he can start kissing my ass????
oh, another thing, when Yang tried to contact me and I closed the channel I still got a threat from Yang???(Doesn't "No, close the channel" mean anything to the AI???)

Try going Police State. I think it's easier to get a surrender if you have the same SE choices.
Or just PB the Commie bastard.

CHange your social engineering from what he hates to what he likes. I think that he hates Democracy and loves police state. do that switch and he should see the error of his ways.
I did it last night with the PKs.
