Seductive Influence

is a campaign mechanic available to all factions, as well as and .
==Overview==
Unlike most other Chaos factions, the followers of Slaanesh have a strong diplomacy game to complement their battlefield prowess. They can actually engage in diplomacy with factions that aren't Chaos aligned.
Slaaneshi factions can build up a unique resource, called Seductive Influence, with individual Human, Elven, and factions.
This is generated by each contact between the Slaaneshi faction and the faction in question, whether by diplomacy or battle, as well as via Cults, high Slaanesh Corruption, or the Gifts of Slaanesh.
Different races have different inherent resistance to Seductive Influence, and the number of settlements possessed by a faction increases the overall amount of Seductive Influence needed to reach each tier of influence.
Factions at higher Seductive Influence tiers are easier for the Slaanesh faction to manipulate, and at the final tier of Seductive Influence they can be forcibly vassalized.
