We considered doing something about that militarily and for a while when we were at war with Krill it looked like he was about to attack us, but I think we puffed ourselves up just enough to put him off that plan. After that we mostly tried to keep him sweet - tasty trade deals and support in his war with Superdeath (okay, we had an ulterior motive for that). Gavagai's attack on Cairo was the trigger for our own attack on Gav since if Gav had our core at his mercy then our game was over.
It wasn't anything you did (at least, not to my eyes) that stopped me from attacking you. It was Krill vacillating between fighting you and doing... nothing, and I wasn't going to attack you alone. I was ready to attack for quite some time, including burning your Hindu Shrine city while you were garrisoning it with Warriors, only for you and Krill to sign a cease-fire. Then declare war again. Then another cease-fire. Then war. Then a peace treaty. It was infuriating. So eventually I just decided to bugger off and try and salvage some fun out of this game, which is where invading SD came from.
Ha! I wonder if krill kept signing peace because you wouldn't attack? Anyway thanks for not doing that...
Well, that's a ridiculous excuse if so, he had twice my power, probably more.
