I can't do "Break Alliance with x" even though I have over 50 favors

[TheGalak10]

Hi guys. I recently bought Leviathan (i only own that and Art of War) and I'm having this issue: i can't make Naples break their alliance with France even though i have more than 50 favors with them. Here's a screenshot of what's happening (my game is in italian, "attirarsi i favori" means "curry favors" and "recidere un'alleanza" means "break alliance"). As you can see i have 87 favors with Naples but the option "break alliance" is greyed and the game doesn't give me reasons for that even if i hover on that with the cursor. I saw a post on reddit (

Can you attach your save game?

Sure, here it is

I tested your save, but it doesn't show the situation from your screenshot. In your save, the tooltip says that you can't break alliance, because you and Naples are at war and because you don't have 50 favors. But I reproduced your problem and can recreate the original problem. And I think I found the reason. The action doesn't work, because you don't have the Rights of Man DLC. I don't know if it is supposed to require the DLC, but if it is, the action should not be visible in the first place or it should have a tooltip to say why it isn't available. In any case, there is a bug here. Can you make a bugreport about this in the bugreports forum?

Yeah, the screenshot was taken before the war with Venice so i see the point. The thing is that the favors' system was introduced with Leviathan (this is the reason why i bought it) so i think i should be able to use all the mechanics included in the dlc. I think you are referring to the great power mechanic in Rights of Man that let you ask to break alliances, anyway, i'd say that they should be two separate things. I never did a bugreport, i'll try and see where it gets.
Thanks for the help!

I agree that they should be two separate things and it makes sense that the favor actions would all be available with Leviathan. But I tested it and if I enable Rights of Man and Leviathan I can use the favor action break alliances, but if I disable Rights of Man, the favor action is greyed out and doesn't work. I also tested it by enabling all DLCs except Rights of Man and the favor action still doesn't work. So it is definitely the Rights of Man DLC which is required.
