Naturally but then the round would have been completely different in terms of setup. Politics would not have flowed the way they did as I would have had to neutralise Vikings as well.
In theory, I sincerely doubt we wouldn't have at least gotten a fort avoidance with eachother earlyish, especially if you knew our aim had been to hit Ultores. Simply from the fact it would have bogged us down in a war and not you, and hopefully neutralised Ultores for you.
It's hard for me to comment in "theory" as I very much adapt my politics to what is happening in the game and a whole number of reasons could have adjusted to WHAT deals with WHO for how much TIME.
Of course the deal with Vikings was beneficial to Spore and impacted the round, but then so did every deal I made last round. All of them had impacts across the whole round for Spore.
PS: Forest does not speak for Spore.
