Below is a map of the core showing the top tribes. Only they (the members) know the current diplomacy status of each tribe. (Though I'm sure spy's exist and most actually know the others diplomacy.)
Well... that said we will assume its a spyless world and nobody knows anything about the others and so... lets discuss what we see as actual beneficial diplomacy.
The Map:
Before starting the "assumed" diplomacy discussion. Lets first consider the spreads of theplayers tribes.
The tribe i see with the best spread is U?. If they play smartly the southeast is theirs to take with little effort.
Also, Selfie looks to be in relatively decent position as they can use diplomacy to protect their front while plowing through the northwest but they do have some concern from above via Rollup not to mention the ever looming threat from RawR.
RawR looks to have a relatively easy path to the southwest but something tells me thats not their only plan. (Hmm... might they be eyeing eastward grounds too?)
Which brings me to Drunk! and Snobs.... These 2 tribes are in a very vulnerable position but also a very lucrative one. The ennoblements indicate no diplomacy which in turn indicates that Snobs has decided to ally with at least RawR and possibly Selfie too. If so, they surely have some type of border/K agreement with one or both.
So.. what to expect? Well...
I think Drunk! is up the creek.
I think RawR's threat isn't above but rather from the east and therefore RawR will work for a North/South border agreement with possibly both Selfie and Snobs
I would expect Selfie to Nap Rollup as to provide some safety though I think Rollup is wise enough to go no further then a nap with them unless they work out a larger (say east to west) border nap.
I also would project an alliance between RawR and Snobs.. Which allows Snobs to war Drunk! and RawR gets to eat their K all while looking east and preparing for the midgame war. (Line depth is such a luxary.)
My first one out is Drunk! (sorry)
My last one standing is Rollup (yep, I know its a wild guess but.. smart diplomacy, no backline and/or real frontline threats gives them the upper hand.) U? is positioned nicely with an awesome spread but... They might be facing a grueling war soon.
Just my early game thoughts
and a way of showing my noobish tendencies too.
