[spoiler] 2metraninja and ot4e make waves

Last minute breaking news:
...

So maybe Molach will still settle channel city on his isthmus and we might be able to sail west, completing circumnavigation. Just last turn we were sure he will plant 1 tile east of where his settler is now, as his worker was chopping the time he stands right now. Interesting, what made him change his mind?

Looks like he has just feared to plant without protection against our galley. Tell me where can he plant on the isthmus? Just by the sheep? Impossible...

[2metraninja]

it is sad world if indeed our only friend fears us. We had like 3-4 opportunities to raze a city of his and capture workers so far. Why now?

[Dreylin]

Maybe he thinks that you guys are a pair of loonies who will declare war on anyone for a short-term advantage...

[2metraninja]

But if it was the case, we would had done it times and times ago. Short-terms become long-terms if nourished correct.

Sorry, but I do not believe your version guys. I have my faith in humanity. I believe he will build a channel city.

[2metraninja]

I forgot to say I offered ceasefire to Dutch. Maybe even twice lol. I wonder how they will think of it.

[OT4E]

Old Harry decided to show that he is not vegetable and still got powder. No screenshots, but he is finishing road to us and our peace expires this turn, so probably he didnt accept we had taken the spot between us.

REM purged his lands from the rest of our units and started spying on us, huh. If we were give a coin for each spy point spent on us...

We had no recent updates, but most of our communication happens on chat. Here are few screens to bring lurkers to date of what is going on with Vikings.

As mentioned, OH push in our direction and settled on our borders, this time he settles inland:




He and Dutch had exchanged copper for copper and Dutch are providing him with horses for his darned WCs, which bodes nothing good for us. Plus he rejected to renew the 10-turns forced peace, so we stay at war at the moment. But despite this, we decided to turn backs to this little grudge and not seek to destroy OH with our twice-as strong-as-the-next-one army, but seek for new frontiers and new greener lands across the sea:




Ipecac had a warrior acting as sentry, which might spoil the surprise a bit, but we hope he does not expect such a visit.

Looking at our spartan and nordic-harsh starting land, here is what our explorers find:




Molach had built for us a convenient channel city, so finally we are just few turns from circumnavigation:




I wonder what it will be if we ask Mistoltin/Alhazard politely once more time for OB and if he refuses us again?

You guys are just awesome

[2metraninja]

Thanks man, glad people enjoy our play

In this regard, here is a screenshot from this turn.




Sweet, no?

Well that was a fun read. I always approve of role-playing the actual Vikings when you roll Vikings.
