Asterix just fishing for more information from us, as I understand his msg.
He didn't offer any info in exchange, keep playing 'you broke our deal' card.
He got info on Rome's intensions, I suppose. He could use spies to scout Rome's military. He got info on everyones techs. And he obv has visual on every India's cities.
I have no opinion on diplo with Asterix, so you probably should send this msg if you ok with it.
Rome's msg is fine, as long we don't break our current deal with Yos and DT.
If Rome reply, I think we should inform other teams about it. It maybe not in our interest short term, but its fair.
Several time I tryed to chat with suttree, but he didn't respond.
Last time I want to get his attention, so I sent msg about possible close borders from t120 (Arki said he'll close borders from t120 with SutOxy).
So, here is reply:
What do you think?
EDIT: Logged in to the game. SutOxy didn't start GA this turn. I suppose it depends on their CS timing. I doubt they wanna bomb Artist instead.

Quote:Eggheads,
I'm sorry to hear that you are considering closed borders with us t120. I understand that it is more convenient (for you) to chat instead of writing e-mails, but I'm not sure it was a reasonable expectation that I make myself available during my holiday break.
Island cities allow us to run without foreign trade routes if necessary, and so I hope you would consider maintaining open borders with us not for economic reasons but as a sign of the potential for future co-operation. In chat, I've gone to great trouble to explain how I think about the game: we understand the importance of using whatever surplus we earn in the micro-game to help our friends and harm our enemies in the diplo-game.
We consider you a friend, and so if you think we have secured some sort of "game-breaking" advantage, please let me know, and we can take steps to co-ordinate our growth. Please note that at Guilds you will have a military advantage not available to us until the Renaissance - many thousands of beakers later.
1. Whatever happened to the silk-spice trade we agreed on? It would be a simple thing for you to ask for added gold.
2. How can we work together to expand in a way that makes up for the land India stole from you?
3. The "first-to-Music" bonus was an important part of our game plan - what do you think our future tech plan should be?
4. Asterix is ahead of us in tech - should we strengthen or weaken his position?
All these are ways we can work together - I hope you would consider a long-term game plan and which team is best equipped to help you achieve that plan.
Regards,
suttree for the Oxysuttocratic Republic
