Agreed. But in this case, I had no intention of keeping the peace beyond our mutually agreed 10-turn truce (see previous post).
I hadn't counted on LA Marignon. But only a mental defective would let the 3rd largest nation in the game take part in a 4-on-1 clobbering of the 6th largest...Mari has forced his neighbors to attack him immediately. Or wait until he gobbles up Eriu, then attack him. Or hope that *snicker* Jotunheim, *snicker* Utgard, or *snicker* Ulm will actually get the lion's share of Eriu's lands...
No bother. Few nations can make victory as expensive as can Eriu in the mid-game (see "Charge of the Light Brigade")

Why do you think that Ulm wouldn't be able to take a good share of Erian (Eriuan? Eriish?) lands? No Sidhe has yet faced the fury of the Black Knights, nor the Guardians (alright, one did, but he died), nor both at once.
As for the Light Brigade, if Eriu is supposed to represent the Russians, well, the Black Knights aren't very light.

If Eriu is supposed to represent the British, well, I'm glad you've accepted that the generals of Eriu are quite stupid and lead their own men to their deaths.
