RB PBEM #10 [SPOILERS] - Meatbalz

[Ioan76]

IMHO supplying troops to an enemy civ during a conflict is something which clearly break a NAP ... but I'm curious about other ( more experienced ) lurkers opinion.

[Gaspar]

Its a bit of a grey area. Usually its hidden behind some sort of situation like this, where one player is "repaying" another for a previous debt. If Cyneheard drops off 2-3 Knights or something, that can make sense. If he drops off a dozen, well thats a lot for 300g or whatever. Bottom line, its up to the player whether or not they see it as NAP-breaking.

I'm too spoiled to comment specifically on the game situation, but very broadly speaking, if I'm in a war and another player is supplying troops to them specifically to use against me, I would view that as an act of war, and feel vindicated in any methods I used in response.

Just my two cents.

Well CYneheard droped 15 units but for now, i have no choise but goig with the flow.

When cyneheard fought was like he number 1 in power and serdoa and Tatan 5 and 6 now is me first but Cyn and TT 2 and 3. Dont have time for a big update but i will do one sun enough.

[mackoti]

well, the war isn't going very good,and the diplomacy even worse , i sent this to Cyneheard

hi,

So 300 gold is worht 12 knigs and 3 musketz, very cheap i can say, but no problem more units to kill for me and a serious drop on your power.
i will get to the point: in few turn there will be a rezolution from Apostolic palace, wich of course will have one of the option stop fight with TT, what i ask is that you dont bring that one to the vote, because i have a large army and privateers and ship of the line and all kind of units wich will have no use for me .Until now you realy acted like a.... towards me , when i had Nap with you i didn't sent 15 camels like good faith.And BTW i talked with Adhoc and he said he will no way breake the Nap with me.
So the concluzion is simple if there will be peace with TT willl be war with you.
regards,
mackoti

I didn't got any answer but he changed his research from economics to chemistry so i think is obiously he will not accept my demand.

To be even worse Adhoc gave some frigates to TT.So i am like at war with 3 people, but at peace with 2 of those.

Its clear for me now that this is more a diplomacy game than a civ skill game.

Yep thats true for every game run here except PBEM4-vets game which is a No Talking- Allways war game.

[mackoti]

I dont have time for an actual upadate, but is clear for me no i can't take cities from TT so i started to burn them first the hindu shrine.I was dreming about myself and the holy city but its imposible to figth in this condition 1 against 3 so i do what i can.
Not complaining i have alot of fun with this game to bad my dyplomacy sucks and i dont have an ally to fight along my side.

I am still number 1 in power ,even TT got gifts like 25 units till now, more plunder for me.

CYa

[mackoti]

I got the 2 island cities from TT,loosing just 1 musketman and kiling all the units wich Cyneheard give to him.

First i was mad but not anymore cause is power had a severe drop,and i had a lot of fun butchering knigs and muskets knowing that are coming from Cyneheard.

TT is almost izolated on his main island with 90% of his ship destroyed, staying on a big army wich he cant use.

Bad news is that Serdoa is flying away trow techs , no war for him,but with more land for me i will catch up.

[spacemanmf]

Do we get any screenshots? Would be nice to see what you are doing with the butchering with.

[mackoti]

your wish my comand:

The army which i distroyed






who is "guilty" for that?






Actualy some "butchering" was done by tt hich suicided some units aginst mine
