New turn started
@ RJ : yes, I will NEVER backstab you in CeD (he is Persia and I am Macedonia lol).
I think some countries in Grognards could find me trustworthy (that strategy was advised by wwhill as the first French player because you threatened to autoraze your Portuguese cities). But is it my fault if you are eating France alive and threatening to win over everything soon ? Spain is a poor lonely country and must do its best to survive in this world of powerful monsters. If we can't rely on force, we must use some cunning. But due to the fact war became effective before my turn, I did not attack you at all this turn. Consider this a formal declaration of war. At least you know I did not support France with techs, gold or resources during that time. A bargain I'd say ;-)
And I have NOT backstabbed you in AoD, RoR, water (BTW can you send me a mail with the ongoing deals you had with Tweedledee), Seafaring....
@ Akots : why "decent" ? I told everyone at the beginning this scenario is indeed THE scenario for changes of alliances, treachery,... Even the computer breaks military treaties and reverse alliances, can't we humans be a bit more cunning.
And about RoB I went down to attack the Incas then because of the absence of RoP my troops were so slow that when they arrived there the geopolitical situation had changed drastically and you were the one on top (and at an alarming speed) so I just had to go back and tried to declare when I was out of your territory so no backstabbing at all (at least in my mind !).
About peace between Spain and Austria. the pb is when you get the diplomatic screen you haven't had the chance of looking at the situation so I just thought since you knew Russia and I had an MPP you had made peace with Russia before. Since you hadn't it is perfectly normal (and LOYAL) I redeclare when you attack my ally.
