Here is the map. They’re trying to fill a fourth match: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1201263855062487120/1208887389854892122/Imperial_Diplomacy_-_Version_1.png?ex=65ee259d&is=65dbb09d&hm=41f342eeff473278464101b30bc129465f5da9450ac5087d085421f7adaa354c&
[Speed Europa variant] moving from Burgundy to Ruhr should not be possible
Hello,
As noticed by Tyran (user ID 2518) in the game "Wolf Pack v3" (game ID 58137) armies may move from Burgundy to Ruhr and vice versa (see the Map info tab of the variant's page) while the map doesn't say that. Maps on the external variant homepage also, so I suppose it is an error in the code, not the map.
Newest Deadline show just released on DBN. This month we have an interview with North American Diplomacy Federation President Zachary Moore, a panel on what is Hot or Not in the hobby, and headlines from around the World of Diplomacy. https://youtu.be/UMbW_NWWmfo?si=cMiv9HGwzfN4mWFT
Hey everybody. It was about time someone organised another cross platform Cold War tournament.
The tournament will be played wherever the players agree to play. Which means vDip will be hosting games. I have made a rule set on discord: https://discord.gg/kKnAuHN6kM - if you do not like discord I will communicate via e-mail. I will post updates here.
IMHO a really great new variant with many options, constantly fluctuating balances of power, both fleets and armies with power, sensible offboard movement that makes stalemates hard.
Glad you guys like the variants. I personally prefer bright colors with high contrast between themselves, but if you ever find something obstrusive you can make a suggestion at the variant development thread. I am always experimenting.
Proposing color codes (FFFFFF format) is also very helpful!
Enriador - it's purely as aesthetic preference on my part, I'm sure there are just as many players out there who prefer the high contrast colour scheme.
The podcast is so awesome. What are the chances of getting a WWIV (big map) game with serious players that would be committed to discussing (Skype?) the decisions and situations throughout? Is it just how it seems to me or would that be ridiculously awesome? I'd certainly take part.
I could even imagine discussions throughout the game. The public statements (not required but could be so fun) could be part of the diplomacy. What would everyone's thoughts on this be?
Episode 45 is now up and running folks. Lots of stuff packed into this one. We discuss a number of vDip changes and variants. Hope you enjoy! Usual spots: DiplomacyGames.com, iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify etc
Kaner and Amby, two comments about the latest episode:
1. You both say you are fans of my variants and Dawn of the Enlightenment intrigues you. There are two slots open in the playtest. Put your money where your mouths are and fill out the damn roster! LOL
2. Conquest of the Americas is not being discussed as an addition to Playdip, which is a good thing, since it needs some work. I believe the variant you are thinking of is War in the Americas.
A couple of online tournaments (webDip's Gunboat, Nexus tournament) have just ended or are on their final game. It would be nice to hear your thoughts on the final boards and strategies employed!
As Kaner is a bit busy with real life stuff at the moment, a much shorter than normal episode is now out, with an interview with Ajax from the Diplomacy Nexus. What's that? Well as Enriador pointed it, its a cross-Dip platform tournament site. Worth a listen for the vDippers wanting to take down webDippers, playDippers and the like.
Oui! Oui! Oui! In the latest podcast episode we interview Emmanuel du Pontavice about WDC 2019 in Marseilles. Plus we talk vDip's Europa Renovatio, 1898 and PlayDip's War in the Americas.
You can now also support the show when shopping on Amazon by using our link (https://diplomacygames.com/amazon) - it doesn't cost you a cent more, but gives us a small kickback. Which should help with the recording gear :-)
As always listen at https://diplomacygames.com, iTunes, Stitcher, Google Play and Spotify.
Hi folks, a new episode is out today. This time Kaner & I interview Baron von Powell, master variant developer. Here at vDip you'd know his work with 1900 but there is so much more depth and stories beyond that! This is a back-to-back episode so... I may be getting a bit sloshed, but don't give anything away in my gunboat/anonymous games. But still have a bit of fun giving the down-low.
Have a listen at https://diplomacygames.com or search for Diplomacy Games on iTunes, Stitcher, Google Play and Spotify.
Thanks Bella! That was one of the reasons we created the podcast, to raise awareness broadly about Diplomacy and to a lesser extent about vDip itself. Glad you enjoy it :-)
Not sure about Kaner, but I've only been in Canada once (Vancouver in November last year), that said Mrs Amby wants to get to Alberta in the 2 or 3 years. Still a bit of a haul to Toronto!
Drop by https://diplomacygames.com/groups to register your effort to get a face to face scene happening in Toronto. We can add you to our map. Make sure you do some cross posting in the various Dip social platforms to try to find players. In episode 45 I talked about what I'd done to try to get a f2f community going locally. We had our first game almost 2 weeks ago and I think we have succeeded now in recruiting more players to get a regular board or two going every couple of months.
Hi everyone, we're keeping with the fortnightly release schedule with Episode 49 of the Diplomacy Games podcast. This time Kaner & I interview jmo - mod at webDip and key contributor here at vDip too. Plus we talk about the prospects of Minecraft Diplomacy.
Have a listen on iTunes, Stitcher, Google Play, Spotify etc by searching for Diplomacy Games, or visit https://www.DiplomacyGames.com
Episode 50 of Diplomacy Games is out folks! We interview podcaster Zack Twamley from When Diplomacy Fails about parallels between history & the game Diplomacy. Plus Google translate Dip & our 1st Brisbane face to face game! DiplomacyGames.com, iTunes, Stitcher, etc
Episode 51 has dropped early! To help get the word out about DipCon 2019 we interviewed Nathan Barnes (formerly of the other podcast, DiplomacyCast which wrapped up in 2017). Plus Kaner & I talk diplomatic uniforms, current games and we discuss - strongly - our views on what is a panhandle in an American state. DiplomacyGames.com, iTunes, Stitcher, etc
I've got some very good positions in a Europa Renovatio and a Colonial 1885 that I'd like to unload. Excellent opportunity for some shiny V points with no risk. PM me for details....
Going through an unexpectedly busy period at the moment and can't really pay full attention to all of my games. I don't want to keep spamming extend or pause requests so I was hoping someone could take a couple of gunboat games off my hands. Only solid positions, including one board top. DM if interested!
A country has taken the accounts of two other powers in our game and is now controlling three countries. How can we report this player “Akim” for Multiaccounting?
i have unexcused missed turns in https://www.vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=57414 and https://www.vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=57569 despite never having been in either of those games.
Hey all, the gamers guide to the 1900 variant seems to have vanished. The link provided under the variant redirects to a different website. Does anybody have a copy handy?
Just a space for people to either share with others some interesting fact they learned today or else publicly expose how embarrassingly ignorant they are.
