No need to apologize. It looks like you got off to a slow start and then forced into an early war with at least cold-resistant Ulm (maybe Yomi as well?).
Actually so far this is going similar to my first game on Sixlands - early wars in both the north and the south (my previous game I believe they were both 2 vs 1 wars).
I really should have kept that previous experience in mind. Now, after a fast start I'll come out of the first round of wars as the smallest nation. I think I did something wrong there... Oh well, at least I won't be dogpiled as being the biggest threat.
