Never can work out why some bad faith play slides right under the radar and others haunt people for a long time.
Guess it might be something to do with how memorable and/or dastardly it was? Also whether the nasty was done from a position of strength or one of weakness?
Maybe I have been sold the Spulla talk but, I think that it wouldn't have been a bad move to join up with Spulla however, the offer has come too late. One downside of the way that Sulla has played the diplo (Not forming close relationships early) has meant that now he has no friends. Had he approached DMOC/Nakor earlier suggesting on carving up Dantski at some point in the future they may have a friend for the immanent bloodbath!
It's going to be messy! The killer blow to Spulla could be the arrival of the praets. They are going to have to work hard to defend against everyone (assuming they know what they are doing and talk to one another) but they will be almost gasses by the time Whosit arrives.
Having said that - If I were Whosit I wouldn't have even entertained the idea of shipping my army all the way for absolutely no reward what-so-ever. I'd have said - concentrating on Korea and rebuilding, cannot afford it.
Then got on the be in a sound position economically for when the others have wasted all those hammers bashing each others heads!
Seriously, Dsplaisted should be laughing when he sees all the war declarations! Settler, worker, settler worker etc... Build up the core to finance it and let em have it in the renaissance.
That's what I think anyway...
