Generally, with this tweak, Rome's starting position is still strong enough they will typically become powerful, but not always, and when they do it will be a slower process.

Here's a link to the thread from years ago with instructions on how to comment out the auto resolve boni:

I cannot seem to find the files mentioned in those instructions. Is there an update to how to do this, or a more clear cut set of instructions?
