I kind of like the different dramas playing out.
On the west end, it's kind of peaceful, with just some border skirmishes going on.
In the middle, you have some battles - one team eliminated - plus more border skirmishes.
On the east end, you've already had one elimination and battle continues to wage fiercely, including a major skirmish. Plus, the west and east has met.
It's all pretty interesting.
Right now, I think I'd say that pindicator is probably in the best shape - he's not missing anything, he's been able to farm, he's about to get a great wonder. his land isn't the best, but sunrise has great land just to his north

And sunrise looking like he's ahead will make him a target before pindicator.
