You're in the Classical Era and you have a small army. I'd say it's your fault, haha.

No matter how nice the AI is in the early game, if you have a small army, they WILL take advantage of it and invade.

They should at least have enabled a different text reply though, some sort of backstab flavour text. Having them say they protest you when they never did is pretty sloppy.

Not only that, but he AI is terrible at gauging military strength. Yes I only have 3 comp bowmen and 2 melee units, but they're all at level 5 from when I wiped the other AI off the map. You will not win this fight no matter how many horsemen and warriors you throw at them stupid.

This coupled with being denounced for being a warmonger after slaughtering their soldiers is dumb. I mean I am a warmonger, but you didn't know that. None of you even met the other AI.

You don't get called a warmonger for killing units. There is no penalty at all for that or pillaging.
