Achievement: "Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!"

[Princeps]

How to get this achievement? You need to join a "betrayal emergency". But how get I such an emergency? I cant attack civs, which are friend or allies.

Play a huge map. The chances of this occurring increases.

Played on a huge map with lot of emergencies but no betrayal. I really want to know the mechanics of this case of emergency.

Basically you need a civ who you were friends/allies with to declare a surprise war

I believe you can also go to war on a civ who used to be your friend (and still has the diplomacy bonus). Let the alliance and/or friendship expire, declare a Surprise War, and see if it triggers.

Remember no Emergency is 100%. Once you meet the conditions the game rolls the dice to decide if one triggers.

That said, I've usually had no problems getting a Betrayal Emergency. To make it especially likely, put Cyrus in a game and try to meet him and make friends early on.

Ok thank you. I will try this.

You also need to consider the likelihood of an emergency coming up but all the ai refusing to accept it. In games I'm in I've had emergencies come up against the AI but rarely I've seen them accept one against me.
For example in the last game I finished, I had two CS emergencies pop up against the ai on back to back turns. I won both of them easily. I ended up killing 6 CS myself and 7/12 civs. I dropped dozens of nukes on the remaining players as I was prepping for Mars and yet not one civ accepted an emergency against me.

Did you get the achiement yet? I need help with it myself, maybe we can do this in multiplayer?

The way I got it was a bit by luck. Perhaps explaining the circumstance might help you. I was China, spawned close to Scotland and Chandrugupta India. Friended Scotland, defeated India. Keep the friendship alive until the inudstrial. Got the "To War!" golden age perk. (Rise and Fall) Waited for the friendship to expire, on the same turn denounced and began a war. Ended up fighting off Norway and Scotland's armies (due to the emergency), conquored them both. :)
