1066 update
England got a bum deal in the first attempt of 1066. This should now be better balanced with a new SC in Norfolk (formerly East Anglia on the board) & a new sea territory, Central North Sea. Enjoy!

Best Empire in History?
This ought to hopefully provoke some lively discussion here. Which empire, do you feel, was the best in human history? I personally like the Mongol Empire the best, especially under the first few khans. It just seems like a very progressive system in a lot of ways. There were a lot of crap things, too, but every empire has such things. I feel they were able to take the best from a lot of systems and synthesize a new whole, and that's pretty rare in history.

Sorry another support move question
If I have three units and an opponent also has three units, and I assume he is going to support move next turn to one of my SCs, but I'm not sure which one, would I be covered if I just attack all 3 of his units? That way none of his support moves could work, right?

Hello everyone! I am currently working on the newest variant, on a map of Middle Earth! I need to check and see if there are any bugs in the system, so I need to run a playtest.

Question about a game finish
This was my first time playing a South Africa map
http://www.vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=11422

I'm confused how Columbia won as he didn't have the required SCs to solo and we didn't concede, is there a time limit on phases?

Favorite Party Game?
Just got Pictionary for Christmas, and I've had my eye on Cards Against Humanity, so I was wondering what you guys usually play with people (besides Diplomacy, of course) when you've got a good group.

Clarification on Head to Head Battle
Right so I'm playing a game over at WebDip and I was wondering how this scenario would play out. Unit Setup (Hypothetical): Austria: Army in Prussia, Silesia, Kiel, Denmark. Germany Army in Holland Ruhr Munich Berlin. If Austria moves Kiel to Berlin with Double support, and Berlin moves to Kiel with Triple support...what happens?

self take over?
what's going on if has happened in sequence:
- someone went in CD, and, as usual, I receive a notification
- the country is taken over (apparently for free cause the pot didn't change)
- there's no global chat notification from Gamemaster stating: "Someone has taken over Austria replacing someone else. Reconsider your alliances."

World Treaties Game
I'm not sure if this has been done before, and yes, there are several potential problems, but I would like to play a Treaties game on the world map. It may be difficult to gather enough people, but I think that if we put together a concise version of the rules, we can get everyone to understand exactly how this will work.
King Atom (1186 D)
21 Dec 12 UTC
And, of course, if we can't get the thirty some players to commit, we can always try a smaller one like the new world map or on Known World.
If you have any comments, feel free to point them out.

If you guys click on my profile, there are some links with examples and whatnot, hopefully that helps, I've been meaning to get a concise version of the rules up on the wiki, but I haven't had the time, hopefully I can get it up in a little while
Halt (2077 D)

From what I understand of the rules I just read...wouldn't that make keeping track of things difficult? I mean trying to remember 34 people and their specific relations to each other...that sounds harder than my math test.
King Atom (1186 D)
22 Dec 12 UTC
Yes, that's part of the challenge behind it. Like I said, we may need to reduce the number of players or set up a very effective method of keeping track of it all.

Well, we could always ask for clarification in game - although that might reveal our intent to attack early on. ;P

I'll make sure everyone's clear on the rules and that the phases agree with them when we're about to start, but for now...I'd like to focus on getting more players involved.

"I'll make sure everyone's clear on the rules and that the phases agree with them when we're about to start, but for now...I'd like to focus on getting more players involved."

How exactly do you hope to do that when people have no idea what they are signing up for? It seems to me the you're big on launching rather ambitious projects that never quite see completion. Your ideas are rooted in good intetnions, and there is some merit to the concepts, but they're never fully flushed out.

Vassal States
I have recently come across the idea of recruiting losing players on the verge of defeat into "vassal states". I think it could be a very feasible strategy. On Classic, especially.
Thoughts?
