[Olm]

Some out of character comments:
I have had a lot of fun in this game, thank you for that. And I learned a lot, but thats nothing to wonder in my second MP game. (In fact turnwise it has topped my first one).
I think diplomacy is very difficult with so few nations and a clear gap between the 3 major and the two minor powers. But thats no reason to forbid it. In fact I think more about diplomacy than anything else with this game.

Now hear the words from Igraine, Mistress of Avalon:
It is not acceptable to Us that Pangaea and Ulm conquer the minor nations of Arcoscephale and Eriu. We will not stand aside while those nations are assimilated. So Ulm and Pangaea: You both have to withdraw your troops, or We will have to take proper actions.
As a sign of good will to Pangaea We will not push Our attack further. In fact We will retreat out of Giant's Rest. But don't misunderstand this as fear or weakness. We will come back, if need be.
