Just exploring the possibilities, but has anyone here thought of sending Enk1 into Pillage CBRs land?
We have Enkidus, and the best unit they have are warriors. Shortly we will know where the iron is. We could rip up all of their terrain improvements, we might even get lucky and capture their worker.
Just the theory of course, but has anyone ever done this before? (I have warrior rushed someone before, and I have pillaged early on with a scout, but nothing more.)
On a better note, Aro, have they asked for any compensation in an alpha for BW deal? I would be disinclined to give any discount, unless we could work something out to do with a writing -> philo beeline (and with this lot, we would have to be the ones to research philo, of course)

when we pillage their land they are crippled, so they will take revenge. but as they have no chance of winning anymore they will make a total war and therefore slow our expanding.
we will lose more than we will gain!
edit: it would be a good idea if we would play against an AI but humans aren't that forgiving...

Aro, I think Alpha for BW would be GREAT!!! 135 beaker value, for 81 beaker value.
Do we want a no retrade clause (or a timed turn release clause) with the tech trade???

Well, we didn't talk about values, just the general idea. It's a job for our leaders and strategists figure out how we can do it, and all the details about bakers, tiles and so on. I'm just a messenger... 
We should discuss the subject and study alternatives, to be able to answer fast... What is a fair deal, in our opinion? I'm pretty sure they will not trade BW for alpha just like that. IMHO, they have experienced people there. They will want something in exchange. In fact, Wosret talk about a "package deal" including tech trade, exploration, screen trades and peace (He mentioned a deal involving turns, how many as possible)
But they didn't send me the proposal yet.
edited: About this "no retrade clause", I agree. Btw, we should think about cooperate in long term with Brazucas carefully. I'd rather not eliminate this possibility. At least, so soon. Lets wait.

Early wars can be very effective. The fact that they are human not AI is all the more reason to remove them quickly. I am aware that if we did start a war, it would be hard to end it without destruction of one party, or one suing for peace due to being eliminated otherwise. But there could be profit for us in this.

This does not exlcude an early war, nor does it damage our repuation with other nations.

Besides, we need to figure out what else we have around us before we go killing everyone... Not to mention that Brazucas seem to want peace, and we have a friendly relationship right now. Or it seems so.

agreed. if they are our only continental partner, we'll need to trade tech with them at least until we discover another nation.

Just received:
(posted in the official correspondency thread)
quote: originally emailed by Wosret
After we lead some topics already in common between our civilizations, and discuss it with the Brazuca people, we came with a "package deal" that we like to link, making our nations more close and friendly. We would like that this proposal went submitted to the appreciation of the people of Apolyton, in order to permit a consensus about those subjects. We expect a positive proposal and so fast as possible.
Yours, etc, etc…
The most sincere blah blah… of your friendly Nation.
Here is our proposal:
--->About the exchange of technologies:
The Brazuca civilization proposes the exchange of Bronze Working by our Alphabet.
--->About the Screens:
Our people have the full intention of carry out such trade with you, people of Apolyton. However we’d like to know in that "molds" we would make this exchange. An example: We’d like to know how much information we must pass you, and which kind of Screens. I don’t know if I was understandable, however the Brazuca people would like to know more details of this trade.
--->About the agreement of maintain units at least 1 tile from the borders:
Beyond concretize this deal, we’d like to increase somewhat in the style of exploration: We’d like that the curraghs have free passage by the cultural borders of the nations. Of course we should debate more about the matter, it’s only a demonstrative of our intentions.
---> The Brazuca civilization would like to include in this "package deal" a peace treaty, with duration of 50 turns on average. We find this an interesting topic it to be analyzed, for that we’ll be able to grow and develop our nations in a complete way, and may this bring joy and brotherhood to our peoples.
--->The Brazuca people would like to ask priory to register our agreement in the UN. The Brazucas citizen are a little fearful, and despite of knowing that a feeling of cooperation between our peoples exists, insists on the idea of prevent any possibility.

Did they really put that "Blah blah blah" part into the message, or is that your doing?
