Quite frankly, i really dislike how this turned out. Ctis is already "powerful" in stock by itself, but getting a free lab, fortress and home province income this early is pretty huge. Bad manner by whoever is playing Man.

In all fairness I think Man had a bit bad luck the first few turns. We were spaced 2 provinces apart too so I raided his capital soon as I could ( on turn 5 or 6 ) with my pretender. There wasn't much he could do.

Well, I guess we know who we should all gang up on first!

As it will swiftly become apparent from the score graphs, I am being double teamed in a surprise attack from Ermor and Mictlan. I guess I should understand why Ermor was unwilling to agree to a NAP-3.

Any neighbour of Mictlan can likely take advantage of this, as my scouts show all their armies engaged in the northern of their territory. They've also wasted 55 gold on province defence in almost every province. I'll also agree to send a single useful but can't be created by your nation item later in the game, if I make it that far (Dwarven hammer; earth, death, astral or fire boosters, that sort of thing).

R`lyeh, if you're looking to make Landfall off the north of your territory, Mictlan and Ermor are distracted.

I understand that your a bit irritated, but that sometimes happens when you expand into multiple peoples face and are hyper aggressive in diplomacy; I did try to warn you.

The place for something like that is private messages with the people that you actually have contact with in game, a public message is considered bad form by most people; and probably less likely to get you help.

For what it's worth, good luck.

Your warning was a little too subtle for me, I guess. I'm not actually irritated, I understand that it seemed like a sound tactical move to interrupt border negotiations with a preemptive strike. I'm just here to make sure it doesn't pay off as best I can. :-)

I wasn't aware public information sharing was considered bad form. My apologies. That's a first game mistake, that I hope no other nation will hold against me.

Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far.

I see. I found it interesting how you messaged me about Nifel last turn. Now i understand why this pincer on you is happening.
