Original post that was here is included below for reference:
OK the other game of Diplomacy on here which I was a player in seems to have ground to a halt, mainly I believe because there wasn't much by way of timelimits and the level of commitment of the players varied greatly.

Therefore I'm looking to start a new game, with myself as GM, to try and drum up some interest in the idea. Here are the rules for new players:
Wikipedia set (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplomacy_(board_game))
Diplomacy Archive [PDF] (http://www.diplomacy-archive.com/resources/rulebooks/2000AH4th.pdf)

I'm looking for players who are seriously committed to playing through the full game here (or at least until one person could reasonably be declared the winner). Ideally we would have a turn every 3 days - if possible shorter but occasionally longer.

It needs 7 players to get started. If there are more interested we could play a variant or have two games - but ideally we want 7 for classic.

Sides will be randomly drawn at kick-off.

Communication is via PM unless you want what you are saying to be public. Moves are submitted to me via PM. If you seriously overstep a deadline you will have all orders defaulted to hold.
Builds are made after the fall is resolved via PM a.s.a.p. Retreats are likewise made after the turn as quickly as possible.

Players from the other game are welcome - provided they are committed.

This is a seriously good game once it gets going (and from the off), which I'd have thought would appeal to any fan of the Total War series - especially S:TW and M:TW. Team work and a keen tactical mind are essential. Friendship and betrayal make it one that's never dull even if you're losing.

[GoreBag]

I admit that I'm interested, but can't tell for sure if I'll be able to participate at the moment. However, if the setting were to change to Colonial or Macchiavelli, I'd sign up immediately.

[Orb]

I really don't have time at the moment. Maybe next time...

[Csargo]

I'll play as UK or Great Britain whatever it is.

[Glaucus]

It's random mate. I'm in though.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

I will crush you all with an iron fish!!


sorry, just don't have the patience to play this game out over months

[Glaucus]

So which one?

[Ignoramus]

I'll play, I'm glad someone else is organising it.

[Al Khalifah]

Alright some interest.
For those worried about it dragging on, when I say 3 days per turn I mean that's pretty much the maximum a turn would be. If everyone is in gear then they can go faster - it'll be resolved as soon as all orders are in.

So far there are 4 interested I think.

[Zalmoxis]

I want to try this.

[Al Khalifah]

Would I be right in thinking then that the following people are so far interested:
Zalmoxis
Ignoramus
Glaucus
Csar
Brother Mark

And GoreBag is a maybe.

Inspired by GoreBag's talk of Machievelli I was wondering what players would think about the minor change of either playing Fleet Rome or Milan variants. Certainly I think whoever is drawn Italy should get the option of a fleet in Rome rather than an army, as this greatly improves play balance and makes things much more interesting for the Italian player.

[Yawning Angel]

Right, a thread that has caused me to de-lurk for the first time in a long while . .

Would be interested in joining this game, but would understand if you felt uncomfortable having someone with a low post count and infrequent post-history join. (FWIW have lurked this forum since pre-MTW1).

I have played Diplomacy before (about 15+ years ago) and am happy to forum whore at work, so think I shouldn't have a problem keeping with the 3-day turns.

I also have a Machiavelli set, but think we may be better off with 'straight' Diplomacy to start with (unless you are all experts - in which case - :help: ).

Anyways this could make the seventh . . so on with the game?

[Al Khalifah]

Well that's a 6th... or maybe 7th.
Zalmoxis
Ignoramus
Glaucus
Csar
Brother Mark
Yawning Angel

And GoreBag is a maybe.

The post-count doesn't trouble me - provided you're keen. Brother Mark is only a junior member, but was plenty active in the past game and should hopefully be a full member soon.
I'd play but its a bit unfair playing and GMing.

1 more definite please !

[GoreBag]

I'm gonna have to step down this time. I've too much on my plate lately to devote enough regular time to it, especially since I usually go days at a time without touching a computer.

[Glaucus]

... any news? I thought this was supposed to be a quick and efficent game?

[Yawning Angel]

If it looks like we can't get a 7th, we can always go ahead with 6. I believe the standard rule for six people is a non-playing Italy with the armies/navies just holding. Makes things a little easier for France, Austria and Turkey but would get the game moving.

[lanky316]

I've not played Diplomacy in years, so would be a bit hazy. Providing we're playing a team based variant rather then every orgah for himself I'm prepared to give it a go. Just hope my team mates are patient with me!

[Glaucus]

...we're not playing teams...

still interested?

[Al Khalifah]

Well - teams in diplomacy can be formed - but they are only ever transitory things and purely informal. The only way to maintain teams is to continually provide the greatest mutual gain to one another.

If you're interested we have the seventh player we need to get started. I know I said it would be a fast paced game, but if the starting players aren't comitted then it'll soon grind to a halt. Better to get off to a good start.

[Glaucus]

I meant we aren't using the variant of the rules where its Austria + Germany + Turkey vs England + France + Russia. We can form teams, I doubt you can win without forming teams, but we don't start with teams.

[lanky316]

Pfft I'll still give it a go. Just have to find my little white flag first :laugh4:

[Yawning Angel]

7 peeps \o/

Just to remind myself, this is 50 provinces plus Rome to win? :laugh4:

[Al Khalifah]

So the players in the draw are:
Zalmoxis
Ignoramus
Glaucus
Csar
Brother Mark
Yawning Angel
lanky316

To be randomly drawn to the following Great Powers of Europe:
England
France
Germany
Italy
Austria
Russia
Turkey

[Glaucus]

Do it to it.

[Csargo]

So we don't get to pick our own Nations?

[Al Khalifah]

Draw:


Csar - England
Glaucus - Austria
Brother Mark - Italy
lanky316 - Russia
Yawning Angel - Turkey
Ignoramus - Germany
Zalmoxis - France

[Csargo]

Woo dont I feel special :D

[Al Khalifah]

Yeah, well England may not outright lose many games, but she also doesn't win that many games either.

I'd like Spring 1901 moves in on Friday at latest please so that results will be ready for Saturday. Since this is the first turn, if they can be in sooner that would be awesome to get some momentum going.

... You may now betray each other...

[Glaucus]

For easy reference:

It fits in my monitor, but if it causes your window to resize itself just let me know and I'll resize it.

[Brother Mark]

Italy? D'oh.

[lanky316]

Russia... Looks like I really will be waving that white flag! Right now to do this for mother Russia. Might we use the house rule wherein any foreign power within Russian terriroies at the end of the fall turn die from cold weather? :laugh3:

[Yawning Angel]

Salutations from the Sultan of Turkey,

I must say it is a refreshing change to be enjoying the balmy climes of my Mediterranean and Black Sea resorts.

[Pannonian]

Russia... Looks like I really will be waving that white flag! Right now to do this for mother Russia. Might we use the house rule wherein any foreign power within Russian terriroies at the end of the fall turn die from cold weather? :laugh3:
Only if you use the house rule that Russian armies canot enter Finland.

[lanky316]

*checks map* I suppose I'm prepared to accept that agreement

vote - winter rule

Sorry wrong game...

[Al Khalifah]

First post in this thread will be used for game status and the current board. Best to plan your treachery from there.

Board image is being generated by Realpolitik for anyone who is interested.

[lanky316]

Just sent in my orders for the first turn. Just trying to refresh my memory on the rules and found nothing on the links at the start of the thread. Is it possible to defensively support units in territories at the same time. Army in A supporting army in B and army in B supporting army in A. If the enemy army in C attacks will I get the support regardless of which territory is attacked?

If the enemy army in C attacks will I get the support regardless of which territory is attacked?

As far as I know it is possible to mutually support as you are suggesting, however the support can still be cut with the right combination of units.

If you have to units A and B, mutually supporting each other, an opponent (or multiple enemies) will need at least 3 armies for the attack to succeed. This could either be with 2 units supporting a third piece in the attack on A or with one unit attacking B (and therefore cutting support) and one unit supporting a third piece in the attack on A.

Hope this makes sense without a picture (and that I've got it right).

[lanky316]

Yeah I understand the way it works. That's how I thought it worked but wanted to make sure before I try and use it to counter an assault to find out I was wrong. Thanks :)

[Al Khalifah]

Remember folks to try to have those orders in by the end of tomrrow.

[Csargo]

Al Khalifah are you going to use a map like Ignoramus was using? Showing all our moves for each turn.

[Al Khalifah]

Al Khalifah are you going to use a map like Ignoramus was using? Showing all our moves for each turn.
Yes. If you look on the first page of the thread you'll see a map generated using the Realpolitik tool (link is on that post).

Realpolitik will take all of your orders and display them graphically (including supports and convoys). It's a neat tool since it also resolves the turn as well by the standard diplomacy rules and shows what actually happened as well.

I'll include all generated bitmaps in posts to show how the game is progressing.

[Al Khalifah]

Oh and in response to a request to clarify - by the end of Friday I mean GMT - 8 Pacific Time 23:59 on Friday the 13th of October.

While I am personally based in the UK, I feel this is the fairest system for players from around the world. Also - I won't be resolving diplomacy conflicts at 3 in the morning on a Friday night...

[Al Khalifah]

Deadline day.... 3 sets of orders recieved so far... 4 to go.

[lanky316]

I know of someone who was awaiting a response from me and I only got that sent this morning to them. THat should be sorted now so just a case of when the individual gets online today.

Gentlemen, you may recommence betraying one another...

[Ignoramus]

Interesting start.

[Csargo]

How will we know what provinces we've already taken? It doesn't really show or will you be keeping up with that Al?

[Zalmoxis]

You see the regions you've taken at the end of the year, actually.

[Csargo]

Ah thanks Zalmoxis

[Csargo]

Al Khalifah how long until next moves?

[Al Khalifah]

End of tomorrow (Tuesday) ok for everyone? Some are already in.

[Yawning Angel]

Some interesting moves, and some not so interesting! (Guilty as charged for a totally conventional Turkey opening). Looking forward to more political shennanigans (I've no idea how that last word is properly spelt!)

[lanky316]

I tell you what. To make things interesting why don't you abandon Turkey and hand it over to Russia?

Yes... my diplomatic efforts are hopeless :laugh4:

[Yawning Angel]

I tell you what. To make things interesting why don't you abandon Turkey and hand it over to Russia?

Now there's an option I hadn't considered :laugh4:

[Ignoramus]

Are all the orders in?

[Al Khalifah]

No : 5 sets are in.

Still waiting for 2 sets. They know who they are.

[lanky316]

Give them another hour. In the event of failure to do so all lands are handed to the Soviet menace. It's in the back of the rulebook somewhere. I'm doing well on this game!

[Csargo]

No one shall ever get my island in the sky :D

[Yawning Angel]

I see Fortress Britannia is alive and well then :knight:

Gentlemen - it's building time. Players should not communicate with one another about how they will make their builds. Therefore I expect the build orders for the winter turn to be in by the end of tomorrow (Wednesday) - Thursday Noon at the VERY latest.

Builds expected:
England: 1
France: 1
Germany: 3
Italy: 2
Russia: 1
Turkey: 2

[Glaucus]

:dizzy2: no builds for me:sweatdrop:

[lanky316]

Only the one for Russia. I should be allowed to have an almost infinite supply of poorly equipped troops to send wave after wave to the front line.

As an aside. I'm going to be away for the weekend. I'm going to be in the office until 4 on Friday but may not have web access until next Tuesday/Wednesday. I'll try and sort out any orders before going away if everyone has their reinforcements sorted in time :)

[Yawning Angel]

Have sent in Turkey's build orders. In the light of Al Khalifah's request about non-communication during the build phase, I will wait until all these have been posted before replying to my PMs.

It's game on again guys. Next set of moves by the end of Saturday. lanky316 if you could try and get your moves in by when you leave that would be awesome and also if you could let us know when you expect to be back so we can plan for the next turn.

[lanky316]

I've sent in my orders for the turn now. Getting them done nice and early in case I forget tomorrow. These may be subject to change but I'm happy with them and shouldn't see any reason to change unless there are vast diplomatic changes.

I'm due back on Monday night but am unlikely to be able to get online until Tuesday. Things should be back to normal then.

[Csargo]

My moves are in.

[Zalmoxis]

http://www.mevyou.co.uk/Pictures/dip/1902sm.gif

The two Austrian armies in Rummania and Budapest were both dislodged. However, since there was only one valid retreat positon for both armies (the same) it has been automatically judged that one army is disbanded and that the other moved to Galatia. Which did which is irrelevant, but for sake of argument:
Austria
A Budapest, no move received (*Disbanded*)
A Rumania - Galicia

[Yawning Angel]

Do we have a deadline for the next orders? Wednesday? Or are we waiting for peeps tp come back from breaks?

[Brother Mark]

Yeah, was just about to say the same thing...

[Zalmoxis]

What's going on, we still playing or not?

[Csargo]

Khalifah hasn't been on since the 22th. I guess Real Life has gotten in the way.

[Ignoramus]

Drat, just as it was becoming so interesting.

[Yawning Angel]

Drat, just as it was becoming so interesting.

Drat, so we're putting all the politicing and guessing games off for a week then. Here's hoping Real Life sorts itself soon.

[Al Khalifah]

Sorry guys, I am still running this don't worry. I thought I had said today was the deadline so haven't checked since but obviously I didn't say it anywhere. Try to have moves in for tomorrow please!

Assuming lanky316 is back?

[Al Khalifah]

Sorry guys we're still waiting on two sets of orders.

[lanky316]

Trying to send my turn to you now. It ays you've exceeded youir stored message space so I can't get them to you. Going out now so will try again later on tonight or it may need to wait until tomorrow night.

[Ignoramus]

If Glaucus hasn't sent his orders in, then I wouldn't worry. (No offence Glaucus, but your situation is not a pretty one.

[Glaucus]

I did send them so HA. And yes things look grim for me. Well done Italy / Brother Mark, you out foxed me this time.

[Al Khalifah]

Apologies... for the full inbox.
If you send it now it will be recieved without problems.

This game has generated quite a lot of PMs you see.

Sorry.

[Yawning Angel]

Do we have all orders in yet?

[Al Khalifah]

Yeah, I'll process them when I get home at 1300 (GMT)

[Al Khalifah]

Sorry for the delay again guys... NTL have disconnected my house :help: . I will save the file and put it online at work tomorrow.

Wow, France is looking a little congested! Maginot line obviously not constructed yet, who'd of thought it, an attack through the low Countries.

gg all, and best of luck to everyone in bringing down Italy :laugh4: . Nice job brother mark.

[Ignoramus]

Hard luck Glaucus, you really got sandwiched between Turkey and Italy.

Awaiting 3 sets of moves still.

How's this coming along? Have we all submitted yet? :balloon2:

[Csargo]

I think I'll drop out this game is too time consuming and I already have other things to do sorry.

[Pannonian]

I've volunteered to take over England in Csar's place, but Al Khalifah hasn't been on since the 12th. Should I start talks as if I were already England, or should I wait for A-K to confirm my spot?

See no reason why you can't start talks :juggle2:

As noted in my post above, I am not entirely certain where we are with this turn, or if all players have pm'ed their orders yet. (Would hope so as they were supposed to be in last Wednesday)!

Anyway feel free to PM me for a totally unbiased and accurate account of what has been going on for the last few turns :laugh4:

[Al Khalifah]

I believe we are still waiting on lanky316 to send moves for Russia and obviously for someone to send moves for England. Since Csar has dropped out, I think it best that Pannonian take command of England from here on.

So still awaiting orders for England and Russia people!

Might as well get the game moving. Lanky hasn't been on for over a week now, and everyone wants to continue play.

[Pannonian]

Is the game continuing?

[Yawning Angel]

TBH I think if you are over a week and a half late with your orders, you forfeit moves for that turn otherwise this game will just stall. (Not counting the new English PM who only just joined us of course)!

[Pannonian]

Can we just get on with this? Lanky hasn't been on since the 7th.

[Al Khalifah]

With everyone's consent I'll take Lanky's turn this time then - I'll just make the most defensive moves possible.

I think we need a new player for Russia, since I doubt he is coming back now...

[Yawning Angel]

Progress!?! Or is this now dead?
