recently playing some WWIV games i noticed that the variant description is not sufficient, as it does not tell anything abou IST, PAN, and EGY and also doesnt tell you that fllet cant move into territories that are bordered by this arctic territory, eg YUK and SRG...it is not optimal that you have to send units to these territories to find out what the rules there are...and asking in the public chat might give away plans...

need 2 more for anon Aussie game

I ask this because my rural peers have firmly stated this will happen to me if I do...

Who wants to play a nice classic game?

gameID=11395 needs a replacement Russia. Good position

I keep getting a weird failure message when I try going to WebDip. Anyone else having problems logging in

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!

I recently came across an interesting variant of Diplomacy - Explore Dip. The link is here:

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.

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.

This was my first time playing a South Africa map

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?

Can we unpause please?

I have a suggestion that the non-SC's could be automatically allocated when there are two or more owned SC's touching them

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.

Let's work on the vWiki about this, I've set up some pages but it would be good for folks to add to their areas of interest:

Hope everyone has a fun and safe New Year! if you are out, be careful driving home! look forward to seeing you all in the new year :)

Thread reserved for EoGs from gameID=10753. I thought this may be fairly interesting, especially if we can hear from some of the people who didn't make it through.

How come webDiplomacy's forum is always thriving, while ours seems doomed to be always a ghost town? We should try to make this forum more of a social space, I think.

Let's play the Very First WW-IV Game Ever !!!
I propose a 10 , 10 minutes, Full Press, WTA.

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?

China was removed from Tongking (where they had an army) and with that army, retreated into the Siuth China Sea.

Argentina, a top power, left out of the blue well into the game with 14 centers. They are in good shape to be in on the draw and are only 11 to take over.
