ok so i started playing galciv2 dark lords a few days ago when not playing WoW.  iv gotten to a mission in the campain where i have to ally with the torians.   is there a trick to getting the alliance option available in the trade area.   yes i do have the alliances tech (and a TON of other techs) researched.  the drengin have been defeated   the torians think of me as " nearly gods"   what am i missing?   speak with has the surender option but nothing else in treaties...

nm after giving a tech or 2 every 6 weeks for about 15 cycles   it finially jumped my status up one pixil and got it to  "close"
