21 Feb 17 UTC Spring, 1: Ave, everyone!
21 Feb 17 UTC Spring, 1: Ave!
22 Feb 17 UTC Autumn, 1: Ave caesar ! Shall i take Dal and you Vind ?
22 Feb 17 UTC Autumn, 1: It seems we silently agreed on your plan to begin with. Great minds think alike, I suppose.
22 Feb 17 UTC Autumn, 1: I hope so.
23 Feb 17 UTC Spring, 2: oh shit, i missed builds
23 Feb 17 UTC Autumn, 2: Well played, Carthage, didn't see that combination of moves coming!

Given that Carthage is putting me under heavy strain, I'm willing to put our differences on the Adriatic coast to rest, Greece.
24 Feb 17 UTC Spring, 3: This was my initial proposal...
24 Feb 17 UTC Spring, 3: Egypt, are you interested in the same with me? You wrap up with Persia and then whoever between greece and Rome survives joins in a 3 side draw
24 Feb 17 UTC Spring, 3: You didn't exactly phrase it that way, Greece. Anyways, I see my error, will stop any hostilities towards and call back my troops from the east. If you use that as an opportunity, so be it, but I'm the only thing that stands between you and Carthage.
24 Feb 17 UTC Spring, 3: I know this. So, I will respect my words.
27 Feb 17 UTC Spring, 4: Well, this could end in either of 2 ways. Egypt solo or a 3 way draw.
27 Feb 17 UTC Autumn, 4: It's all up to Greece, really. Either you help me finish Rome off (sorry Rome) and go for a 3 side draw, or I give I hold my stalemate with Rome, give my 4 Scs to Egypt and then you can hope that he will offer you a draw deal.
27 Feb 17 UTC Autumn, 4: One way or another, I have nothing to loose.
27 Feb 17 UTC Autumn, 4: And a draw to win.
27 Feb 17 UTC Autumn, 4: No worries, Carthage, I learned a lot from the way you played, so thanks for the lesson, certainly was an interesting fight for me.
27 Feb 17 UTC Autumn, 4: I do agree for a 3 way draw. Tell me how you see things in more details.
27 Feb 17 UTC Autumn, 4: Well, Persia is out. You see the score.

It would be unfair to kick Rome in the teeth. He playes well. So there are two options, in my eyes.

One is we finish Rome (hoping that he will not put up too much of a fight) trying at the same time to contain Egypt. If we are lucky we will be done with Rome before Egypt is on 18 SCs.

The other option is that we leave Rome alone and we all 3 bring Egypt into line. Then 2 options emerge, either we finish off Egypt or we reset the game and we start with 4 more equal teams.
This requires all 3 of us to commit that Rome keeps Vind, Rav, Neap and Sicilia and that Rome moves everything south and fights Egypt.

There is also another scenario. Egypt convices one of Rome/Greece to ally with them. Then good luck to all of us.
27 Feb 17 UTC Autumn, 4: I wont' ally with Egypt. Too risky. Rome has been a fair ally. Let's push south and get a draw !
27 Feb 17 UTC Autumn, 4: I also refuse to suddenly now start fighting Greece. Pushing south sounds like fun, on the other hand. It starts to get boring in Sicily...
