The obvious play in your situation was "OK Rustle, if you want to be treated as a full fledged power on the server that's all well and good. But you can't have it both ways: if you want your own VP slot then you have to stop allying with Aftermath on the tougher targets. We'll even throw in a Sleeper's Tomb Golem rotation to sweeten the deal."

This is easily a huge win for Awakened. You'll go from 50% to 90% on AOW/Tunare/Vyemm/Yelinak in exchange for going from 33% to 25% of VP. Did this counter proposal never occur to you? Honestly even at this stage, if I were in your shoes this would still be my play. Plus I'd demand the next VP slot to restore my honor and placate my plebians, then restarting with order Aftermath/Awakened/CSG/Rustle.

This deal makes no sense for Rustle. Why would they give up their picks on AOW/Tunare/Vyemm/Yelinak/CT, going from maybe 15% to somewhere around 0% in exchange for going from 17% to 25% VP? It would be a pretty sweet deal for Awakened that Rustle would never accept.
