Re: A novice question about MP.
One thing I've learned in dom3 MP is that people who NAP up with all but one of their neighbours as quickly as possible usually do really well.
People are extremely reluctant to break NAPs and if they're 3 or 5 turn notifcation, they're rather reluctant to give notice too. So basically you end up with someone pounding on their enemies while aided by effective allies who give them safe borders and get hardly any of the spoils. Contrary to what you might expect, people are often too peaceful and passive in dom3.
I think sending everyone NAP requests at the start of the game is basically a sound strategy. Attack the one you don't get a NAP with.
