Was wondering if this strategy/idea would result in a major Rep hit or not.. So, let's say you decide to trade your surplus luxury/strategic resource to an AI player for some technologies and/or lump sum of gold. Seems reasonable... Now what if, 1 turn after the trade, you rampage through your own territory, destroying all access to said luxury/resource, thereby eliminating the trade route... Does the trade automatically pick back up once you rebuild the roads? Do you take significant rep hits? Anyone ever try this? Thanks! G

It's pretty bad, but it's also pretty specific. That is, their overall personality won't change too much, the only real effect is that they will NEVER trade you a tech for a resource again. Even if it's not your fault (if barbarians pillaged it, too bad, the AI blames you). However, they will still pay you gold for your resources, and you can still buy tech with them; just not with resources. They will never accept any deal where they are offering a tech, and you a resource. I can prove this too: Enter diplomacy, and create a deal where they are offering a tech, and you are paying a fair price (foreign advisor says that they'll accept). Now, without taking anything off the table, give them a resource on top of it all. The foreign advisor, you'll notice, now says that there is no way the deal is going to happen, even though you'd think that it would sweeten the pot. As for your other question, no, the trade does not automatically pick up again once the resource is connected. The deal was ended, permanently, and you won't even be able to work out another trade because, as I detailed above, the AI simply won't do it. Addit: cancelling the trade early You can't cancel a trade early, except by declaring war, pillaging the resource, etc..

Emulator of Otto von Bismarck, Master of realpolitik, May he rest in peace.
But the liberals should be careful of screaming too loud ... of conspiring too well ... of undermining us too thoroughly. Because if they succeed, if they do get what they insist they want, then the result may well be something they never conceived ... "They have made a desolation, and they call it peace." ~Tacitus~ ... but a peace controlled by our former enemies.
