MP: YARG3, non newb MA+ENP2 RAND game. Executor's Ulm winner on turn 76

There's a lesson to be learned here for me. In RAND games be careful even w/ how, where and when your armies move.

I still haven't heard any explanation from Curious Yellow as to why he attacked me. I'm really curious to know what was his rational.

In first YARG a player subbed for just a turn or two and then he (the sub) attacked me thus starting a war. When the original player took over (two turns later IIRC) the war was already raging and he had no idea, until the game ended, of what the sub did. This episode was also game changing since we both controlled strong nations that could have made a big difference talk about

I've got a curious sub story from YARG 1 as well. Utgard and Pan were whacking crap out of each other over the Aby cap, so with Utgard as a neighbour I took that chance to improve my fortunes with an attack on Caelum. But then Ano (Pan) subbed out, and then all of a sudden the Utgard-Pan war completely stopped in an instant, which left Utgard with a free shot on my fully occupied hands. Not sure how that war stopped, but doubt it would have without the sub handover.
