How to Get Capitulation on "Civilization IV"
- 1). Declare war on another nation -- preferably a weaker one. The weaker a nation is in respect to your own civilization, the easier it will be to force them to capitulate.
- 2). Wage war against the nation. Try to take over an enemy city or two -- march one of your units into an undefended enemy city to take it over -- in order to make weaken their power and make the more likely to capitulate.
- 3). Click the name of the leader you are at war with in the lower-right corner of the screen. This will bring up the "Diplomacy" screen.
- 4). Select the "Let's make a deal" -- or similar -- dialog option. This will open the "Trade negotiation" screen.
- 5). Select the "Vassalage" option and click the "Offer" button. If the enemy leader views you as strong enough, he or she will capitulate to your demands.
