Does the kid actually know what he's doing ?! No catapults in either attack, apparently no knowledge that the main house needs to be leveled to level 1. Are we dealing with a lobotomized kid perhaps ? ;D

Can someone get on the horn with Raul and hear what he says about supporting ghughes if it comes to war. Explain im what happened, an attack and then a failed colonisation bid, and noone seems to have heard from the runt even if our messages have been read.
What we need to hear is that Raul and Firefox will stay out of the fighting if no peacefull settlement can be reached, and will alert any other major alliance not to support AML. Then we can bring in our[/b] friends to play.

I don't think any kind of treaty with these guys is a good idea, they are simply not our kind of people. What's more, I think it's too cheap ghughes will get off by simply paying damages. He did try to steal a colony, go.dda.mmit! That should be penalised.
I propose we start negotiations by demanding the ghughes is expelled from AML and nobody intervenes while we attack his main isle and steal his colonies. Anybody who will fight alongside him will recieve the same treatment.
If they start naming friends, we say "Thank you. Those players you mentioned will be notified about ghughes' actions and will recieve copies of this communication. Furthermore they will get the names of player and allies who will fight on our side, and they will stand aside. Heck, even Raul and Firefox are considering going in on our side."
That will scare them, I hope, and I hope they then will ask for any other kind of deal, just to get peace. Then we offer what I really want: ghughes' colony ship.
He shall launch in together with just one small warship at one of our main isles, where it will be destroyed in the attack. With that gone, we can hav peace, and it's a fitting penalty for what he did. And he has to still pay the normal compensation for loot and lost soldiers, of course.
That is what I propose for the peace negotiatons.

Mads, he's 12 years old. I say take reparations, and ask for an apology direct to soulcatcher. No text messaging allowed.
I imagine that's he's already been given a dressing down by his admin/raul/etc, and will probably be a timid little mite for some time.

I agree, we don't want to make too much of a fuss about it. Let him pay reparations with interest.
A treaty with them would probably be good, as they're high up. And having friends in high places is always a good thing.
Remember the avian... We need to collect as many people on our side as possible for those days...!

Actually, I'm not 100% certain about having a treaty - yes we gain a powerfaul ally, but they get an alliance which is clearly quickly becoming known for its stability, good diplomacy, loyalty, etc.
But whatever, I'll leave that up to the admins/diplos, I', not too worried.
