Unfortunately, Player B's communication allowed Player A to define player B's legitimate actions as aggression and Player B knew that it would be interpreted that way, making them the aggressor instead.

Beautiful statesmanship on Player A's part.

Agreed... But the follow up action of attacking in subsequent years without giving the 5 year notification was poor gamesmanship.
Of course ppl do consider backstabs and NAPs valid only to the letter and clauses agreed to, as valid stratagems.
I consider them the dark side and wud stay away from players who seem to subscribe to that logic... Any agreement I have with them would be only quasi-confirmed and I would be ready for a backstab or a reinterpretation anytime.

Have to disagree. If the NAP is broken by Player B, as Player A has set it up to be with Player B's knowledge, then Player A has no obligation to wait 5 turns. They don't say the pen is mightier than the sword for nothing: don't we use diplomacy as a tool of war? Player A simply used it more effectively given the main chance.

As to it being the Dark Side, not sure how much of what we argue over can be considered darker than actively aiming to commit xenocide - which is the prime objective of the game we play.
