Can someone help me understand why Thoth would look at the state of the world and think "I should do a naval invasion of the guy with Knights and Samurai and strong tactical skills" rather than "I should walk over the backwards neighbor who borders another backwards player and former Superdeathland."

Pin attacked him once and he wants revenge is the only reason I've been abel to figure. Yuris land doesn't even have an army in it atm. Heck even after losing his stack if he takes peace he can probably still go and take it with his leftovers.

"Superdeath seems to have acquired a rep for aggression somehow.
![[Image: noidea.gif]](https://www.realmsbeyond.net/forums/images/smilies/noidea.gif) In this game that's going to help us because he's going to go to the negotiating table with twitchy eyes and slightly too wide a grin and terrify the neighbors into favorable border agreements, one-sided tech deals and staggered NAPs."-Old Harry. PB48.
Also, is that not everyone relevant saying they will concede? Put this game out of its misery for petes sake.

Are you kidding me? As far as I can tell, every single player is having fun with this game, and even reporting and/or saying so explicitly - with the possible exception of Bing, who will likely be out of it anyway in a small number of turns. This game is in the diametric opposite of misery, and trying to end it would be an attempt to take away the players' fun for no earthly reason.
Thoth has offered to concede - good to keep track. I believe Yuris has but Commodore and Pindicator have not.

I still believe that all starts have strengths and weaknesses; this might be one of the better long term starts. Yeah, I can still stand by that statement.

I guess just Commodore then, though we'll have to test with Bing if Comm does wish to.

But it does feel like this will be called fairly soon on account of Thoth being unwilling to make nice with Pindicator.
