I generally pride myself on my ethnocentrism

because Western Civilization is the only one that matters really. However, does anyone else notice the lack of a Conquests of Qin or an Ascendency or Decline of the Mughals variant?

Butterheads' War for America: Team Edition

Everyone knows the concept by now... Team game, where you have a preset alliance that does not change for the duration of the game, and the game cannot end until there is a stalemate line or only one team remains... for this team game, I am looking at Fall of the American Empire. There are 3 layouts of teams I have thought of that we can decide which one we want

Board-of-advisors variant?

We all have weaknesses. Some of us may be weaker in strategy, some weaker in tactics, some weaker in negotiation, some weaker in stabbing/not getting stabbed.
What about this: Let us start a standard game. Players may recruit as many advisors as they see fit, to advise them on all issues of the game.

Gameplay suggestion for consideration

Do you think it would be feasible / realistic / playable to have the ability to "stack" multiple units in the same territory? It would definitely deal with the issue of draw-lines, I'd wager...

Drawing

Am I right in saying if a decision is made to draw a game all the points are equally distributed amongst the players irrespective of how many SCs each player might have?

I've noticed in some of the games I've had that when some countries aren't doing very well in games they start to miss turns and ask for draws. Is there a way of drawing games where points are distributed according to how many SCs each country holds at the point of the draw?

Napoleonic variant?

I've been reading a bit lately about Napoleonic Europe and the following split of Europe in the Congress of Vienna. And it got me thinking - are there any Napoleonic variants out there? I can see them listed in the Variant Bank, but haven't found any maps. Anyone seen anything like this?

It is the team game so pot should be minimal. Probably 5

as usual.

Shep315 (1435 )

well if we have more people wanting to play id be willing to try the Greco-Persian War too and i was thinking something like 5-10

points for the bet

We could play one variant of Greco-Persian wars if you are interested? You can create the game and people will certainly join.

Well by the time I created the game there were 7 people requesting to join and only 6 spots. I sent it to everyone and I guess you didn't make it.

However a new one is starting in a second. The Persian Invasion.

hmmm then we start a new team game in the Greco-Persian wars?

Lukas Podolski (1234 )

Count me in for Persian Invasion, but I got two concerns about it:
a) it's a 4 vs 2 so do we have any special offers for Persia and Byzantinum? say a phase where the other 4 are required to simply hold (or anything possible)?
b) any special rules governing the bidding of home centres?

gantz (1859 )
01 Aug 11 UTC

This is the game: http://vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=2971

and the pwd is: war

We can discuss the rules in the global chat (we can pause the game until we decide which rules to apply)...in any case Macedonia can be allied with Persia...
