2 newbie questions: War without CB but no stab hit / And colony help

[Hasimir Fenring]

It's been 1 week since I can't stop playin' Rome VV. This game is just so great

However, I have 2 small questions to ask:

I start a game with the Bosphoran Kingdom and I completely destroy the Rhoxolani tribe Why didn't I get the -2 stab hit (no CB on them) each time I DOW them ? Is due to their religion ? (ie shamanism) That's strange, because now that I want to annex Colchis (also shamanist), I'll get the no CB stab hit

Second, I colonised the Taurica province. But I can't trade its good (fish) Is it due to a lack of population ?

It's been a while sonce I played but iirc, actions against minor/primitive nations don't cause stability hits.

It's the civilization level what counts. IIRC, if you have a civ rating 20 or more over them (comparing your capital provinces), you get no stab hit. That ussually means you don't need a CB to go war mongering against most tribes.

This. If your capital's civilisation value is 20 or more points higher than that of your target's capital, then you don't need a CB.

The Fish you might not be able to trade because you have no free slots for internal trade?
edit:
You need to wait until your colony has become self sufficient, you will get a large message you cant miss, varies on time for it

Thanx for your answers !

You were right Pholanx, now Taurica is no longer a colony but a city and I can trade my fish
