Re: Number of globals
Hmmmm,
I seem to be saying that a lot.
If I had received a maybe to my NAP response I would have assumed he was stalling for time while bringing up a massive army to invade me and as such I would have either attacked him before he was ready, or if not in a position to do so would have hurriedly fortified my borders and would have started moving armies back in an attempt to repel his invasion.
I have NAP's and trade agreements with other players in other games and with all of them have been very cautious until the other side has sent a response saying yes the terms you suggested are agreeable to me and I consider the agreement signed.
In fact this exact same situation happened to me in another game, but in reverse, where I requested a NAP2 and got a response asking for a NAP4 instead. The next turn I sent back a response saying that I agreed to a NAP4 and it was only then that our armies moved away from each others respective borders, but I still kept a scout down there just in case.
This is dominions after all and at some point you will either be invaded or someone will invade you, from what I have seen normally with the aid of another player. So I figure it is always best to be on the alert. And if you receive ambiguous or no answers to your messages I would always assume it to mean there is something not right and best to prepare yourself.
