I say we tell them that H.N. is going to be replaced with an ironclad, just like all other pickets of ours - within a couple of turns (10-15). I would not be overly friendly, as they are not either - they must very well know that the caravel has been sitting there for centuries, thus posing no threat... besides, with marines still at least 10t into the future, their request is not really justified.

Agreed

Agreed, but I would not offer the Sci. Method deal...unless you want to give them a good laugh

Our response:

Hi, asleepathewheel!

We plan to replace Horation Nelson just like all our other caravels in the Western Ocean (you probably did notice we have been gradually replacing them starting from the southernmost tip of our picket screen). Current tentative schedule is within 10-15 turns. Hope that's ok with you - marines are at least that far into the future, so there is nothing to fear from that lone caravel, even speaking theoretically.
