PM From NDE

[Jon Shafer]

City-friendship

Dear Trip
Can I introduce myself ? I'm Murkel, farmer and mayor of the beautifull city Dar-El-Killam. As you know, your new city have a position near my own town, so I like to establish a very deep city-friendship between this two cities. Could you Trip please tell me who of your members is the mayor of this city, so that I could contact him ?

Yours faithfully,
Murkel

How should I respond?

[BigFurryMonster]

Tell him that we don't have a system in which we appoint mayors. Ask him in what way single city leaders could possibly co-operate.
Tell him that we prefer to comminucate through ambassadors (one-to-one), not on city level.

But remain friendly!

My emotions are already known on this...This city needs to build a defensive unit, then build a settler and relocate the city to the west. This way, when we take control of the NDE city, we will have a better use of the nearby resources.

For now, act aloof and neutral/friendly and be secretive.

[Jon Shafer]

I replied in a friendly manner, and informed Murkel that any contact between their civilization and our should be done through myself.
