Anon Games:

Hi, I’m trying to advertise a game I’ve set up but I’ve made it Anon and as such, I’m not sure how/where I’m supposed to advertise it? I don’t know how to talk about it without revealing that I am in it. Or does that matter as long as I don’t mention what country I am?

Help would be greatly appreciated, it has 12 spots I think and so it could take awhile to fill so I want to get it out there.

Recruiting for a World Diplomacy IX/X game

I have tried the advertising thread for a few times but was in vain, and I don't want to spam that thread every now and then pushing my game so I am going to do it here.

I haven't made up my mind as to whether it's press or gunboat but once we have 17 people we can then decide. I tend to make the game unrated if that would attract more people.

Draws impact on vdip rating

Do the number of centers a nation has when a draw happens impact the number of vdip-rating points?

Ex: Do I get more points as a 5 center turkey in a draw or a 17 center turkey in a draw? (assuming all other variables in the rating calculation are held constant)

Ties?

If you are playing a map such as Imperial Diplomacy II which has a win condition of 70 centers (out of a total 172). What happens if two people get exactly 70 centers in the same year?

No building Game

I am considering putting on a game with one special rule: You may not build. You have to win by force disbanding your opponents units (and then racing to the SC goal)
Would anyone be interested?

Frozen Dog (1515 )

Worried that would be 1) very unbalanced 2) never end.

Russia in particular I feel would have a big advantage.

Swede03 (1517 )

England would be OP

CYFI (1927 )
04 Dec 20 UTC

I share those concerns too, we change the rules to on a retreat you must disband, and play on a map that each power starts off with the same amount of units (say ancient med, or fall of the American empire)

GOD (1791 )
05 Dec 20 UTC

I think that this could actually work great with a variant like viking diplomacy: https://vdiplomacy.com/variants.php?variantID=63

- everyone starts with a bunch of units, both fleets and armies
- few neutral SC's and territories in between, those aren't needed in this game mode anyway

CYFI (1927 )
05 Dec 20 UTC

There is also the "Dark ages" variant, which I think could work well. Ideally we get 8 players and play on the Viking diplomacy map. If we get less than 8 we can find another variant.

The rules:
-Every retreat must be a disband
-No building units

oh one question: with or without communication? Both might be interesting.

mouse (1825 )

Viking Diplomacy would be interesting, and starts with enough units that a 'disband on any retreat' shouldn't be necessary - it's crowded enough that forced disbands will be reasonably possible early on, and people will lose centres naturally to boot.

Pencil me in if it's that map and the only external restriction is 'no builds'.

CYFI (1927 )
05 Dec 20 UTC

@ mouse, got it. (if we end up doing a smaller map where the disband on retreat rule is necessary to prevent the game from lasting a year, would you still want in?)

@ GOD, I think full press. Although it might be more chaotic without. I think the opportunity for unique partnerships is good

ubercacher16 (2196 )

If it's gunboat I'd play.

ubercacher16 (2196 )

Or maybe we should play on Napoleonic because it doesn't have neutrals at all.

I reckon this variant might be the best one for this idea :

David E. Cohen (1000 )
05 Dec 20 UTC

An interesting gimmick. I think you would want a fairly dense map with few or no neutrals. I never thought I'd saying this under any circumstances, but the Crowded map might be good.

CYFI (1927 )
05 Dec 20 UTC

Thank you everyone for all the map suggestions! I really appreciate it :).
Before a map is decided upon we will need to know how many people want to play

The rules I am thinking (they will vary depending upon the map and who decides to play)
-Full press (sorry Uber)
-No building
-Retreats are allowed (once we reach a certain point in the game we may have to implement the no retreats rule)

Who is interested?
