diplo update: caught up with cyneheard again in-game.
while we were talking they accepted the NAP, to T75, max 43 EP each (FYI, i moved them last turn, can't remember from who, as we'd already exceeded 43 EP)
he's directing mali's warrior, which should show up on the hill 2S, 1E of tricky this turn
i offered to have one of their units tag along with tricky on the way to meet carthage, which they accepted. richard the lionheart is 3E, 2N
mali have seen the first barb warrior near their city
england also has a NAP with mali
cyneheard pointed out somebody climbed to 42k soldier points (maybe IW? i'll look at the demogs in a sec)
all in all, i'm getting a good vibe with these guys.
we need to move quickly if we're to get them on our side, the thing is we basically have to trust them not to spill the beans to babylon/mali etc.
we need to move delicately but decisively (hey, nobody said diplo was easy
)
D+I, i'd like to get your thoughts but I'm leaning towards drafting a pretty revealing email to them (btw, don't necessarily mean i should draft it, happy to do it but ilios since you're point man on diplo go for it unless you don't have time)
