What I implied was that if people want emails of the other people, it'd be easy to gather them to one place, if no one fears spam.
Of course, any methods as such are allowed.

Actually, there are 8 VPs besides the capitals scattered around the map, and you need 8 to win, so you roughly need 4 capitals and 4 VPs or any combination thereof. At least if I understood it correctly myself.

So if anyone has the majority of the map(or uses cunning like long range summons if the VPs are defenceless) he'll likely have enough VPs to win. So it's a good plan to guard those VPs in case someone uses stealthy units or such to surprise attack and take them.

Given that we're on turn two and no one has said anything, I guess there's no complaints and everything is good to go. Great.

I was wondering about those VPs, looking at the map it seems there is a cluster of 5 in the "middle" while the VPs around "borderlands" are really scarce... So are they like active or how does VPs dictate the winner? Honor-based, third party declares a winner or what?

No clue. I assume it's the game that determines it, so when a turn arrives where someone holds 8 VPs, it says roughly "Player X won".

If not, we'll just decide it. This isn't a super-competitive serious business game, so I would hope that people can play along without rules carved in stone.

This I think.

So that was enabled with Llama when the game was created? Just wanting to make sure in order to adjust my aim and orient it for the game

Given that the VPs are on the map, I'm quite sure I didn't forget to put it on.

So, VPs should be one way to win. Of course, the normal ways apply too, like defeating everyone with dominion or military force.

Well, some maps seem to have VPs even if they are not enabled?

But, I copy to the info shared herein. Cheers!

Official diplomacy start!

Dear dojango-Utgardt, should you enter my Bogarussian lands, be aware that I will counter with the full force of my army. However, should stay in your own lands, I have no quarrel with you, for now at least. The same, of course, applies to other nations as well, such as Ulm who lives some distance from my lands.
