Peace means that Whosit can drop essentially his entire Praet army (most of whom will have three promotions) into the middle of Spulla-land, in the middle of what should already be a two-front war! The only limiting factors appear to be Galleys and Whosit not understanding he might be able to sail to Spulla from the outside of the ring.
Heh. Broker/Plako are saving themselves and inadvertently dooming Spulla.
Should they be propping up Broker/Plako? Yes. However, they can't do much: Broker and Plako already have metal, and no one has currency for gold trading.
Of course, it is completely unrealistic for Spulla to expect Whosit to invade them (I somewhat doubt he will myself. I'm not sure his economy could handle it (or that he thinks his economy can handle it)).
