Reeks of stalling to me. They have a specific proposal on the table and completely ignore it, instead trying to turn the power conversation back on us.
Random question for our micro people/those with a better sense of our teching capabilities: if we were to rush toward knights at this point how long would it take to get them?

You guys are overlooking that they actually sent this message immediately after receiving ours. It is less stalling with that context. I agree that the message says nothing though.

knights don't do much good against WE, do they? unless I've adjusted to the rbmod too much, I don't think they do.
Please don't go. The drones need you. They look up to you.

It sounds a bit premature, but in the scenario that they become accessive and succesfully claim the Ivory, I fully expect us to have the time to ensure we have access to Catapults and Pikes by the time they move on us.

I would just reply, "Cool bro, we await your offer."

From UniversCiv:
Quote:Hi Scooter!
Thank you for your greetings. We welcome you too  I think we've met only a fraction of the other teams, CFC, Zulu, Native Americans and Turks.
I think there is no problem about sharing knowledge - anyway I'll ask my countrymen first, since I'm merely an ambassador 
Bye

PS : please send any further messages to this mailbox if possible, so that my other teammembers can read it too in case!

The CivPlayers message says a whole bunch of nothing. I'm not particularly reassured by that response. As Lewwyn suggested, I would respond with something short that says:
* Looking forward to hearing your offer.
* We have no interest in fighting; name an NAP length and we'll be happy to sign.
We also have to respond to that WPC joint attack offer at some point.

My thought on the WPC offer is that I'm positive, but that it's far too early to make detailed plans – a lot can happen between now and then.
Another thing is that if we are to roll over WPC too, then I'm going to feel real shitty accepting a bunch of catapults from them first.
Furthermore, I consider that forum views should be fluid in width

would it be viable to 'vassal' WPC as an attack dog?

My read on CivPlayers is they're actually being pretty honest. However, I agree it's time to force them to finally offer something concrete. Drafting something now.
