I just killed this much-vaunted raiding force at a cost of only 3 troops. So, you can see why I might be confused.

Since we're quoting e-mails - Midgard just tried to extract a bribe from me in exchange for attacking EA C'tis. His threats are fairly feeble, so I refused. It's clear that he doesn't have the money to pay that army.

As long as we stand firm for a few more turns it'll be over and done with.
Apparently Man's scribes are unable to read, which makes everything from before suddenly crystal clear. We offered to stop raiding MAN'S lands in exchange for gold now, instead of costing them much more gold in the long run, which is a fairly simple bit of math. Apparently Man's scribes can neither read nor calculate small sums. Considering the fact that Man is unable to stop our raiding force, we thought this was a fair deal.
