    There are some things that could be changed and added to --- feedback to the player being one of them --- but to anyone who has delved into it, the dimplomacy engine is a solid machine.
    Exactly. $50K bought quite an army too.

    None of the factions can or should be trusted. They are all liars and backstabbers -- which is pretty accurate. So what's the purpose of diplomacy? To make a heck of a deal that turn, if you can.
