Time to rub in their bluff How about this little entagonizing follow-up?
Dear friend Quatronia:
Over a week ago the Mavericks inquired if you wished to gain Metal Casting through a deal to benefit us both. However, you did mention that you were already about to gain MC in a very few turns, which we understand.
Since you then are just about to unlock Machinery, we would be willing to sell Machinery to you so we can boost relations, as well as our power together. Please let us know what you would be willing to trade for this key tech.
How about this:
Dear our friends in Quatronia,
Over a week ago, on July 13th specifically, the Mavericks inquired if you wished to gain Metal Casting through a deal to benefit us both. However, you did mention that you were already about to gain Metal Casting, which we understand. (Your specific quote was "we are getting Metal Casting soon.")
Since you then are just about to unlock Machinery, we would be willing to sell Machinery to you in exchange for other technologies so we can boost relations, as well as our power together. Please let us know what you would be willing to trade for this key tech.
Sincerely,
Team Maverick
This draft basically sets them the DATE that they said they were gaining MC soon.
PS: They are researching Calendar right now (2 turns to go), confirmed via espionage. So where is that Metal Casting?
