Combat sims are your friend... attacking out of a city with archers is pure

So much depends on the health of those units now, but I think the axes took almost every hit there, so the spear and at least 1 chariots are untouched...so if the axes promote, I think dtay might actually be able to take and hold 2 cities.
Christ, he'd basically win the war just off that suicidal battle.
dtay doesn't seem to understand the magnitude of the opportunity he has here... he can keep the Capital (!) if he wants now. before decidong he needs to put a unit on the plhill to see the forces in the cap. gotta gotta get vision in enemy land.
It'll take a while to integrate, but if he takes and keeps those cities Jowy and TBS have developed for him, he's suddenly in a VERY strong position.

I say fail: he clearly could have also attacked with two chariots and a warrior, why didn't he do that?

Because ALT+Q is the faster way to quit?

From what I know of Scootinator, this is not the right thing to offer. They should straight-up ask for copper, and it might be granted. Or it might prompt scootinator to make a counteroffer (my guess is, ivory).
