After Azarien, I was close to attack Tortuga, just because he was too big. But I figured out it would be detrimental to both of us. Also, this meant we had a huge border, north and south. If any war would occur, this would be a very complicated 3-front war …

So I made this proposal : we spare ourselves the headache of being at war, go for a NAP-6 and whoever gets 5 thrones wins the game. He agreed and I could reduce my border armies with him (still keeping something, but confident enough to send the bulk of my troops and mages into other wars).

However, it is to note that after Tortuga conquered both Azarien and Ellujdnir, they first took time to cleaned-up all of their unrest (partying pirates create a LOT of unrest) and then started to enter in a deep slumber. The player (and creator of the mod) couldn’t really find time and motivation to go on and mostly stockpilled stuff and stalled. In the end they would launch a massive attack against Fenrel, but their sleep would really favour me in the end (along with the Diamedulla situation that I talk about later).
