I dunno - I suspect this war goes badly for naufrager/Rusten. I also suspect that Superdeath would have been better off settling next to the OTHER gems, which he could have gotten for a settler and a chopped monument.

I wonder if they just paid SD off with a 100-200 gold if he would take that. He really seems to be mostly offended by the warrior kill. Tie cost to their beeline should certainly be less than whopping out hordes of axes?
Bit I guess they won't consider it, because they seem just very rigidly focused on their plan. I fear it will cost them.
Unfortunately, that's the Superdeath Effect. He'll wreck his neighbors just by being himself, no way around it.

So, here's an interesting question: what would you guys do if you were SuperDeath, with a small chance to take and burn a city of your opponent like that? On the one hand, it's maybe worth the risk - 35 hammers vs a crippling blow. On the other hand, it kind of ruins someone's game on a low odds attack, so you are basically forcing someone to play for a long time without much hope. Kind of crappy.
Ignore the fact that most of you wouldn't have attacked in the first place

I don't even think that Superdeath is inherently as aggressive as he looks. As I see it, he is an aggressive player, but no more than plako, for an old example.
My current read: What really sets Superdeath apart is that he finds offense in some actions that most others would not, while simultaneously not finding offense in actions that others normally do (and, herefore, doesn't expect others to be offended by some of his actions that do offend them). It's like his matrix of considering actions to be offensive is shifted two columns compared to the majority's. And that is a slowly learn-able difference.

man, I wish MSCC would post. Hard to get a grip on the game without them

Now after MS's update, could they be a better target for Samurais? SD knows what's coming*, while MSCC are focused on digging themselves out of the tech hole and will still be for quite a while... of course they have much larger whip potential.
Also, has nauf a means of getting that info? *and has known for a while, which makes his previous actions seem less irrational... could he gave fine full steam into the forge city though?
Eh, but what chance to profit from MS? Ten cities can whip a hell of a lot of bowmen Bomans, more than enough to stop any offense. Makes MS lose, not Naufragar win. Plus, that's foolishly ignoring the always-on rabies of SD.
It's doubtful, but Naufragar's best chance to do some good is to dogpile with Cairo, the other victim of SD.
