No-one annexes an uncivilized country directly at the moment, although historically and logically they should.

I mean come on, we all know about the "two war annexation", that is:

1.Dow.
2.Demand all provinces but the capital. (0bb per province.)
3.Dow again after 5 years. (Peace treaty expires)
4.Annex with only 1bb.



And as such I propose the following change to be made:

Annexing should give three times the amount of prestige per province gained.

I'm expecting paradox to anyway tweak the BB handling in the upcoming (V 1.03) patch.
(see Fixed in 1.03)

I agree that the current functionality of BB and prestige (especially the two-way annexion of uncivilized nations) determines much of the gameplay.
e.g. the only reason I'm occupying, annexing and reliefing unciv's as satelites is the benefit of BB-decrease

Since I'm less concerned about world conquest, I annex in one go to save on the prestige hit. And also, it means I wait until later game after I have more culture techs that increase your prestige gains.

But yes, it's something that's been changed for 1.03 :)

Until 1.03, I just edit my savefile to get rid of BB I shouldnt have. It would be nice if Paradox added an event action that decreases or increases badboy (much like they have for prestige). Then we could simply add this action to other events, and even make a random action that decreases badboy.

Humiliate them in the first war, if they have -100 prestiege or less it only costs one prestieg to DoW them.
