Caledorn,

Just checking in, how's things going for you guys? The Zulu aren't giving you too much trouble are they? A severely belated congratulations on landing the Pyramids by the way.

Do you guys have an ETA on when you will hook your marble?

Thanks,

Great! Glad to hear it. I'm sure it won't end up mattering, but I imagine it will be nice for both of us not to have to closely guard workers from scouting units and that sort of thing.

Thanks,

GWT,

We've noticed that you guys have a source of marble in your borders that has not been hooked up. If you are able to hook that up, we would be interested in trading for it. Maybe we could send you gems in return? Let me know if that sounds like something you would be interested in!

Thanks,

From WPC:

Hello,

The reason for the screenshots was that I was away on a trip and our turn player (Beta) was also using quite unreliable connection. He just wanted to make sure that the messages got to you.

We understand your reasoning about the gems.

The missionary should go to north to the capitol, north again to North River, and then NW to the city of Great Plains. Thanks.

an archer for you is on his way as we speak.

Unfortunately we don't see marble up for settlement, but the good news it that the Incan nation has it near the northern border. As soon as we conquer the Incan lands, we can utilize the resource. I bet this way even the builders see a good cause for our war.

Best regards,
Tatu

Hey - just a quick notice to help you out. There is a barbarian axe 3 tiles south of your chariot that is west of our territory. You may not want to move 2 tiles south this turn or else you may lose your chariot to the barb. Hopefully this is helpful.

From German Team:

Greetings,

Thank you for your hindu missionary and the barb warning, our scholars currently discuss with him his teachings in our capital.

The marble is not hooked up because it is located directly at the former and likely future frontline between us and WPC, a place far too dangerous for our workers in the past.
As we experience currently a period of peace, the inca build caste has made it an priority task to hook it up and be ready to trade it to you.

We would be interested in trading it with you versus gems, but we wonder whether you by any chance would be interested in another deal.

Our food does not taste like food for warriors should taste and our people are looking for spices.
How about trading marble against spices and you add the favor to remove the jungle from the gems north west from your town ditchdigger for us ?

Various diplo with WPC:

Here is their in-game diplo message:



Then I chatted with the player that was logged in:



(I see I missed to get the opening pleasantries, but they're basically "Hi!".)

Here is what I sent them via the APTmod message interface. It's not good, but it's far better than in-game diplo message

Hi!

This is a test if you can receive diplo messages via the APTmod web site, so you aren't tied to using the in-game diplo screen to send messages.

Cheers,

GWT,

A straight gems for marble trade would work really well for us, so if the terms are still good with you then we accept. We prefer that over a spice + chop deal because we are stretched a little thin on worker turns right now.

What turn do you think you can have the marble hooked? We will send you the gems as soon as you can get it hooked and ready to trade.

Thanks,
