013:
Why are Dell and me at war? Simple, he went into mobilization and did not realize he couldn't build any wonder and only get out after a peacedeal with somebody else. akots and Matrix certainly would not have granted that and I certainly did not look forward to play in an alliance that would be crippled over time. So therefore the plan to declare and make peace to get Dell out of Mobilization.
Meantime akots had left 28 Arties without any defense in a coastal city near one of mines.
The invading Marine did not even have put the safety of his gun!
The easiest plan to bring the Arties into safety was to move them, have Dell capture them, move, recapture next turn and move again. It is debateble imo if such moves are part of the (non-effectual) UN rule akots is referring to, nevertheless it seemed to be a good idea to continue the game in good spirit.
Having said that: a loss of 22 arties is almost as severe as 28 and the 6 he got back are just marginal compared to the original 28. In the end it still is a major shift in firepower balance, cause the artie is one of the most important units in the game at this stage imo.
Nukes will change all of that of course.
