Anyone for Diplomacy?

[boudica]

I don't know how many of you - if any - are familiar with Dip. but its' an excellent game and I'd be happy to GM a game if anyone is interested.

Please post below if you'd like to play. If you have no Dip experience then you will DEFINITELY need to read up on the rules

BEWARE!

Diplomacy games are notoriously long-winded and often take several months to complete. While I am happy to GM for n00bs, there is nothing more frustrating than people who decide to drop out during a game - it is very difficult to find willing replacements and can really ruin the dynamics of what is a delicately balanced game system to begin with . Therefore, please only sign up if you are committed to participating no matter what; and you are prepared to acquaint yourselves with the rules.

All that aside - if you haven't played Dip before, I can only say that it is very different to most other games you will be used to, and it is TEH BESTEST FUN.

I guess this thread can be binned if we don't get 7 sign-ups - as per normal mafia set up. No worries - there are plenty of places to play Dip online. :)
