Losing an island city would be a setback but TBS already has a strong snowball going here.
Yeah TBS is doing great things. That NW fur island seems to be on of the more flashy flashpoints. It's more designed for the North civ, but The west civs are settling it faster. I think in part its geography, but also its because the north players have been less aggressive is expanding. Both Ram and Comm expanded south more slowly. Ram because of Oracle, Comm because he settled backline first. It's an interesting dynamic. We'll see what happens hahaha
Laz is basically making enemies every where. If I were him and I'd already sniped a worker north, I would be trying to set a good relationship to my south.
Nauf's expansion is really interesting. I think him not chasing Mack is a mistake. That axe should move forward and war dec to make clear that that spot is not ok. If Mack is taking Nauf's banana 2nd ring and settling a very strong defensive spot on the connector he's setting up to really pinch on Nauf.
Pin is interesting, he needs to expand wide again and whether he can do it is in part going to depend on his neighbors not pressing him. But he's good enough to do it.

Oh sweet summer child.
It's never too early for a real war.

Hahaha things are really heating up! Lots of flashpoint wars over islands, but also it seems a real invasion and a real chance of PIndi being just completely knocked out of the game. I'm actually super impressed by how fast Nauf got his army together and how fast he got it moving down to Pindi. And now Amica might be razing a city on the other side? Wow.

OMG... Pin is about to lose his unit builds for this turn and nauf might walk into his capital. This is so crazy.

wow, popcorn-week
Pind is having a really hard time anyways but that first archer-fight was depressing.
I hope he can transform all this population into military quickly.
Regarding Amicalola, is that the usual way to declare war or take advantage of situations?
He seems to be even nicer in games than I am. Cancelling trade beforehand and still having bad feelings

At this point I don't think Pin should even be building archers...

Archers are the only thing he can whip after losing both his metal cities in one turn. But I don't think it will make much difference.

I know. I'm saying he is totally fucked and once his capital falls he shouldn't stack archers. Just die.
As an aside, I am not sure Amicacola has made the right move, I'm getting flash backs to PB27 and when I made the wrong move to attack Targon.

Amicalola gains nothing here that I can see. He's just made it easier for naufragar to grab Pindicator's core. The core with the gold, gems, worked cottages, and Academy.
Amicalola would have been better served by a long drawn out fight between Pin and naufragar.

Yea AMica might gain an island, but he's not set up to make any large gains and nauf is def going to purely benefit. It's just so crazy how neither amica nor nauf have full knowledge of what the other is doing and they've basically had a perfect coordination to destroy Pin.
