The Backstabbers' Table - PBEM 4 Diplomacy Thread

[Japper007]

Well it seems Singaboy is trying to circumvent my walled capital by embarking his knights and strike at my Western cities, so if you can try to hold there. I'll have some units and walls in that area soon too, but I'm feeling like he's trying to fork me. He can't fork two players though, I hope.



(actually wrote a paper on US anti-German propaganda in both World Wars for university last year, fun to see it in this thread)

I know this is all meant in good spirits, but I personally find those Propaganda posters pretty distasteful.

And of course, we know how the USA portrayed Japanese during WW2, which coincidentally is played by you, oledavy. Don't be surprised to find yourself the target of some nukes later on in the game.

Oh don't get me wrong they are very distasteful, KKK members worked on propaganda in both wars...

BTW: Singaboy has crossbows now, just a headsup. I may be more screwed here than I thought, and he'll probably be able to come for someone else after me too...

[Japper007]

Well guys I'm pretty much dead, my capital will soon fall. I'll try to hold Singaboy off for as long as possible, but I don't think I'm making it...

I apologize if I leave you all with a runaway due to my poor showing here.

I feel you, happened to me before.

With Oledavy´s support I expected you to hold yourself defensively a bit longer.

@TheArchduke: What are your feelings about setting up a NAP, working towards a in-game friendship and alliance (for the inspiration for Diplomatic Service) down the road? Us little guys might need to work together against the larger aggressors and ensure that neither of us get out again. Figured I might start a dialog...

[TheArchduke]

A NAP sounds very agreeable. I do hope that my Dow on Stockholm does not impair our relations.

With Oledavy exploding in Science and Singaboy in Size and Production we should at least vow to defend each other.

[Woden]

@TheArchduke: No problem on attacking Stockholm. A little disappointing as I was planning the same, you just beat me to it. I am good with a defensive pact, should we say a NAP and DP until T130, a nice round number. Open to longer or short periods. Just let me know.
