Did a little diplo this afternoon:
To BowAivo:
To Care Bears:
To Asterix:
And importantly, I sent this to both EggHeads and Dinosaurs:
To BowAivo:

To Care Bears:
Blame Caledorn Wrote:Greetings Team Care Bears,
Congratulations on the birth of Wilhelm Shickard. We hear he is an expert at constructing large stone structures
Things are exciting here in the land of the Incas. The Aggressive Romans to our east and your south have just connected their iron resource and the age of praetorians has begun. Take care to keep your southern cities well-fortified!
We would love to grab a religion, but we fear we can't keep up with the Fin teams and can't plan on any of the "first-to" bonuses.Do you know if any of the other teams are going for religions?
To Asterix:
Blame Caledorn Wrote:Hi Asterix,
Sorry for the delayed reply, I had a really busy week. Yes of course we will keep that information confidential. We completely understand your position with India. They are indeed very concerning, with their dozen cities, Oracle, and now a Great Engineer for the Pyramids!
Rome has been very troubling for us. They have not answered any of our messages, and now have hooked up their iron. We know the praetorians will be arriving very soon, and just hope that they won't send them to us. Dinosaurs are on their other side, so I imagine it will be us or them.
Take care,
Yossa
And importantly, I sent this to both EggHeads and Dinosaurs:
Blame Caledorn Wrote:Hello England and Byzantium,
I thought we should start three-way communications to discuss what is to be done with the Romans. I think that we can all agree that if Rome should DOW one of us, it will be the same as a DOW on all of us. The other two teams must immediately DOW Rome if this should happen.
We should also continue sharing information with each other. I can confirm that Rome is Best Soldiers at 103k. They haven't had any major spikes since hooking iron, so I don't think they have any Praetorians yet (maybe they're getting their first this turn). I am attaching a picture of the Roman south from T87.
Let's keep in touch,
Blame Caldorn
