One action card is dealt to players at the start. They may use it at the beginning of any turn, and they will pm the Game Master who will coordinate the gameplay to conform to the rules set out on the cards.
This is intended for play on Classic, though you can invent new cards and make a bigger version.
"Stun" Force random units of a specified country to hold (can be from 0 to all) "Mind Control" Control one unit of a specified country. "Support Cut" No country may support a certain country, nor may that country issue support orders, for 1 turn. "Protect" Nullify all Action Cards for 1 turn. "Safeguard" Forbid all other countries from attacking one specified province for 1 turn. "Industrial Sabotage" Prevent a certain country from building for 1 year. "Espionage" Know who has which action card.
Game Master will resolve action cards; usage of cards must be PM'ed to game master who will inform players each turn what cards have been played by whom, and remind them to follow the rules on the played cards.
@Gobbledydook - sounds like a great idea. The coding element would be impossible but if you had someone prepared to GM it (ie randomly allocate the cards.) From there everyone playing would need to fully some kind of honor system to fully through with the instruction even if they obviously don't like the outcome. You could make it either the player with the card giving the instruction, or doing it via the GM from card player to GM and then onto card recipient to keep a bit of cloak and dagger (ie if you got forced to hold you wouldn't know exactly who it was.) could make it even more interesting.
I've started my first game of webDiplomacy, and in the chat window, all the text is in black, where usually the text is coloured in relation to the country. Is there a settings tweak that I need to make?
I'm trying to start a game with a 20 point buy in, and I'm sure I'm entering it properly, but when I go to the game page, it says the buy in is 1. I've nuked and recreated 3 times now and it's the same every time. I guess I don't really mind playing for one point, but I think I might have trouble attracting an opponent for one point...
I've never heard or seen an African variant. But there seems to be one for every other land area (Americas north, central, south, Asia, Australia, and of course the original Europe). Is this because the geography isn't so interesting (having a simple coastline, tho you could have impassable areas like the Sahara Desert), or just no one cares? :\
We need a new Germany is a World IV game: http://vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=648
In a decent position, but not great. Have a strong ally but a couple strong enemies too. However, a new person might be able to change the diplomatic situation since I believe the wars were as much personal at this point as tactical.
I started a game. when I click my home hub, I can see it with me waiting for other players, but when I search for it in new games and open games, it's nowhere to be found. What gives?

Souldn't Thrace have 2 coasts (east and west) in Greek Diplomacy? http://vdiplomacy.com/variants.php#GreekDip Illium is a canal, similar to constantinople, but Thrace, equaling Bulgaria in classic, should have 2 coasts, shouldn't it?
