Mayor of H-Marker Lake
GCA has unquestioned superiority on land and I've just recently learned they have launched a caravel (remember they have the circumnavigation bonus too).
As a result we have nothing really to negotiate with. Peace is likely going to require abandoning CBR, they may choose to go out fighting than make peace, and probably gift GCA feudalism. After such a peace we will be at GCA's mercy. My only hope is that we may be able to become their trusted ally in which case they may grant us gifts in return and agree to take us to the finals.
Would anyone be interested in playing such a game for maybe the next year or more? It probably wouldn't require much work and I'm interested in practicing my diplomacy so I for one am not ready to quit yet, but will we still have a team if we accept such a high price for peace with GCA?
