another option was for you to get an aircraft carrier and me to get nothing ... The Kalai-Smorodinsky bargaining solution to this game is 1/2 of a chance of getting that ship for me

Huh? This is a typo, right? Who has the chance at that carrier - you or me?

And then it goes downhill from there. ... With the final sentence admitting that the whole post was almost pointless.

Maybe it is just me, but I really dislike being dragged along on a journey when my "guide" has not clearly stated where we are going and how long it will take to get there.

If you have a plan here, tell us what it is. If you are providing a tutorial, please provide links to your source authority. If you are providing original research, please provide references to relevant existing research and indicate what you are doing that has not been done before.

Downvoted.
