To compare he has a measly 4 on naufragar. Actively chose to put them all on me. I guess he wants to be my first target.
On the other hand, I guess it remains to be seen how he'll do with the dealing-with-humans-in-pitboss side of things. This is clearly a case of an inexperienced Aretas forgetting to switch EPs, but Rusten is taking it as a slight. Won't hurt him at all, but the next misread might.

Hello RB! This game looks really fun. Great job to the mapmakers.
Old Harry looks like he's going to plant on Stone on T48. He looks like a lock for StoneHenge? That plant is also in a spot that will make life difficult for WilliamLP. Tensions will rise over there is a couple of turns!

Rusten is legit, and it's not hype. But as you say, no matter who you are or what you have done before, in an RB PB game if you can't read the other players it won't be enough.

It looks like there will be a coin flip between Dreylin and Finharry in the race for Stonehenge. That`s a lot of hammers saved in Monuments/Barracks for the victor.
Also, the tension in the NW corner of the map is interesting. William obviously didn`t like that greedy stone plant of Finharry`s and is now seeking a military solution. I rather expected William to hold back a bit but his aggressive axes can do real damage to Finharry. Exciting times ahead!

Commodore walked a settler up to Superdeath's warrior? Seems kinda sloppy - my guess is that a wounded Native American warrior looks like a scout, maybe Commodore didn't mouse-over to confirm it?
I...think I know what Commodore's new 'in lieu of winning goal' is going to be...  .

I feel somewhat better now that I'm not the only one who made a  -tacular mistake.
Although this doesn't really get superdeath much of anything, either, since he disbanded the worker, and he's far enough away that Commodore's closer neighbors are the real beneficiaries.

Comm is playing on. Superdeath self-destructed, he crippled his natural ally without anything to show for it, not even an exp on his warrior.
He shouldn't have done that, and there really shouldn't have been lurkers cheering him on to do it.

This is standard fare in virtually every game here. I don't think the lurkers did anything wrong at all.
