Kingdoms Britannia Hotseat: These Sceptred Isles (completed, Nightbringer+ Myth won)

[Ignoramus]

I have never heard such rank defeatism! Why don't we just work out our alliances before the game and then decide the winners without even fighting?

Sorry, but it does get to that point sometimes in the Britannia campaign. You ought to know that I'm normally the last person to lay down my arms. I can certainly get cracking on it.

Edit: I guess I'm just a bit sour at how no matter how well I negotiated in good faith with England that there was a secret deal from the beginning of the game for Ireland and England basically to team up and not even declare it in game. But that's diplomacy, and it happens, so I've got no hard feelings - just feeling a little less enthusiastic about fighting to the bitter end.
