Beatific - In this game since it's experimental I think there is a lot more being shared in the forum than any other game. I have never personally seen anyone put out personal details like capital locations on the board. There is typically more of a gentleman's agreement I have found. Just to be clear, no one is offended by you attacking me for no reason - it's just puzzling to me. The full background is I offered to help guide you and a 5 turn NAP to explore the new regions and hidden pop centers, but you gave me an ultimatum of game long alliance or you attacking me. I declined and you followed up on our attack. That's up to you. Somehow and for some reason the Sorceror is now also jumping in against me- but as you note, the RD is also in the Sands (as well as the UN). So I'm not sure there are a ton of spoils for you both to split while making a game long enemy. Those are all things to consider in the future.
As to the condition of your armies, I know what you started with and what you have now so it is just a plain fact that your military is gutted and you have as of yet not taken a single pop center from me.
The reason I'm asking for help on the forum is because I certainly am at a disadvantage taking on the 2nd most powerful military in the game along with 2nd most powerful wizard without any provocation.
Still, no worries. This is a game of conquest so understand you don't need a causus belli. This game is more crowded than most.
I'm mostly just happy to see UM's engine seems to work well and automated. Would love to have all games automated and potentially have some more hyper games of 48 hour turnaround.
