Guys,
Quite an action-packed turn. Unless something drastic happens in the fall, we'll be saying goodbye to Pope Brutus. The heathens in central Italy have relieved His Holiness of his last two armies, leaving the Pope without the necessity of writing any orders next season. Venice chipped in, covering one of Kevin's centers.
In other news, France takes a beating and Turkey invades the boot, while losing his foothold further north. Venice looks to spread and secure his borders, while Florence tries to stretch out a bit. Naples seems caught in the middle, gaining and losing ground at the same time, and allies are pairing off in preparation of a violent mid-game.
Also, remember: keep things civil, guys. Nobody likes an angry board-mate.

[quote:a66bc07396] Guys,
Quite an action-packed turn. Unless something drastic happens in the fall, we'll be saying goodbye to Pope Brutus. The heathens in central Italy have relieved His Holiness of his last two armies, leaving the Pope without the necessity of writing any orders next season. Venice chipped in, covering one of Kevin's centers.
In other news, France takes a beating and Turkey invades the boot, while losing his foothold further north. Venice looks to spread and secure his borders, while Florence tries to stretch out a bit. Naples seems caught in the middle, gaining and losing ground at the same time, and allies are pairing off in preparation of a violent mid-game.
Also, remember: keep things civil, guys. Nobody likes an angry board-mate.

Frigate,

I have, in fact, secretly harbored a desire to create an Atlantic Canadian variant (I honeymooned in Nova Scotia... magnificent!), but I've always figured that I haven't the time or the variant-creating experience to make it happen. I've also contemplated using such a map for Civ Dip... oops, shouldn't have mentioned that Smile

David has some interesting points and some truth to support them. Drawing from amongst Americans (in Maine), Acadians, British, native tribes, and/or the Canadian provinces (Newfoundland, Labrador, Nova Scotia, PEI, New Brunswick, Quebec) you could probably create historical powers... they just wouldn't be compelling to most Dip players. So, the map would probably not become a cult favorite, but that doesn't mean it wouldn't be fun to create/play. After all, I'm GM'ing a game of Asian right now, and it doesn't have any real-world basis beyond geography.

So, yeah, I'd enjoy collaborating on this (I think).

Note on the Great Lakes: isn't there a Great Lakes variant in the DipWiki using native tribes? Anybody ever played it? Should I host one?

Adam

Unknown - FuzzyLogic   (Oct 05, 2009, 8:51 am)
Along this line I think the Great Lakes area of the US would make a nice map. The waterways are diverse, plenty of peninsulas and isthmuses, plus sufficient land around the edges. Surely there would be some hefty competition between say Chicago, Green Bay, Sault Saint Marie, Toronto, Montreal, Buffalo, Cleveland, etc. Sort of like the Fall of the American Empire map but smaller region centered just on the lakes.

Unknown - david_e_cohen   (Oct 04, 2009, 11:24 am)
Yes, the area does provide some interesting geography, mirroring Europe to some extent, though on a somewhat different scale. Depending on where you cut things off, eastern Asia certainly has potential. Southeast Asia and Indonesia provide some similar areas, as do, the Caribean and Gulf of Mexico, and the landmasses around the North Pole. Variant designers creating maps featuring other areas have to find ways to compensate, or work around the geographical disadvantages.

But what is also usually necessary is appropriate history to go along with the geography. A lot of people are not interested in fantasy/science fiction type variants. They want to play in a scenario that bears a fair resemblance to actual history. This usually means having multiple Powers, on a relatively equal footing, with additional smaller nations around that will become neutral dots for the Powers to expand into. The problem with eastern Canada and the United States lies in the lack of such history. One or two Powers have always been dominant, and small neutral states haven't existed.

I don't want to discourage you, but rather just point out some things you might want to bear in mind. Good luck with your project.

DC-220 Russian EGS (Finally!) - TheWhiteWolf   (Oct 03, 2009, 1:58 pm)
Never did give an EGS... Whoops. I'm notorious for putting off these things, and I apologize for that. I'm glad this wasn't a demo game or some such!

I took, what seemed to me, a weak replacement position because I was tired of listening to my wife complain about abandonments. Then she abandoned it. *sigh* Well, not all of us can fight through burn-out and come out smelling like trampled roses. Ben, Michael, congratulations to the three of us for surviving. Alex, thanks for making that possible. Jeff, congratulations getting as far as you did, and in a replacement position. Most of all, thanks to Mike Sims for resurrecting this game and letting me satisfy my compulsive personality. *Can't leave it unfinished!*
I won't speak to strategy, as I really had none, but I did enjoy seeing the French killing machine break down and stop working. ;o)

Heya folks,

Well, its a hard turn for some and more of the same for others.  The Rogues face some setbacks in the south and an all-new front dangerously close to home.  Meanwhile the Elves reinforce their existing holdings, the Knights find Rogue fleets everywhere they look and the Wiz gives up the ghost and becomes the latest casualty.  My thanks to Max for playing this string right out to its bitter-sweet end.  If only the fireball scroll hadn't been misplaced..  =)

As we pat Max on the back for his strong effort, we turn our eye to three needed retreats - one from the Knights and two from the Rogues.  Deadline for Early Winter 11 will be set for Monday, Oct 6th (11:59 PM GMT).

DC-224 Slaughter Of StoryTime - Fall 11 - Medicine... - former.trout   (Oct 03, 2009, 11:46 am)
Heya folks,

Well, its a hard turn for some and more of the same for others.  The Rogues face some setbacks in the south and an all-new front dangerously close to home.  Meanwhile the Elves reinforce their existing holdings, the Knights find Rogue fleets everywhere they look and the Wiz gives up the ghost and becomes the latest casualty.  My thanks to Max for playing this string right out to its bitter-sweet end.  If only the fireball scroll hadn't been misplaced..  =)

As we pat Max on the back for his strong effort, we turn our eye to three needed retreats - one from the Knights and two from the Rogues.  Deadline for Early Winter 11 will be set for Monday, Oct 6th (11:59 PM GMT).

Please let me know if you see any of my too-oft-made errors.  Cheers folks!

New Variant Map idea - FRIGATE   (Oct 03, 2009, 6:15 am)
One of the reasons that Europe works so well for war games of any type is the fact that the Mediterranean exists. In a way, you can think of all of Europe is a giant peninsula, that borders all of the Mediterranean, a giant bay. Bays and peninsulas, especially large ones, offer the most 'fun' when it comes to armies and fleets. Islands help too. (Italy, Britain, Scandinavia, Turkey)

To create another popular world map based Diplomacy game, you'd need a balance of these things. The problem is, outside of Europe, it is very hard to find. South America is one big blob. Korea, Japan, and Asia could be fun, but again, Asia is blobby.

In fact, there is only one other area of the world I can think of that has what's needed, IMHO, to create a fun map. It is here:
http://maps.google.ca/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=&ie=UTF8&ll=47.783635,-63.720703&spn=16.606422,28.256836&t=p&z=5

The East Coast of Canada could provide for much fun IMHO. I'm wondering if anyone else see's what I'm talking about, and if so, if they'd be willing to help me make a map

[Reply]

Unknown (Variants) david_e_cohen Oct 04, 11:24 am
Yes, the area does provide some interesting geography, mirroring Europe to some extent, though on a somewhat different scale. Depending on where you cut things off, eastern Asia certainly has potential. Southeast Asia and Indonesia provide some similar areas, as do, the Caribean and Gulf of Mexico, and the landmasses around the North Pole. Variant designers creating maps featuring other areas have to find ways to compensate, or work around the geographical disadvantages.

But what is also usually necessary is appropriate history to go along with the geography. A lot of people are not interested in fantasy/science fiction type variants. They want to play in a scenario that bears a fair resemblance to actual history. This usually means having multiple Powers, on a relatively equal footing, with additional smaller nations around that will become neutral dots for the Powers to expand into. The problem with eastern Canada and the United States lies in the lack of such history. One or two Powers have always been dominant, and small neutral states haven't existed.

I don't want to discourage you, but rather just point out some things you might want to bear in mind. Good luck with your project.
Unknown (Variants) FuzzyLogic Oct 05, 08:51 am
Along this line I think the Great Lakes area of the US would make a nice map. The waterways are diverse, plenty of peninsulas and isthmuses, plus sufficient land around the edges. Surely there would be some hefty competition between say Chicago, Green Bay, Sault Saint Marie, Toronto, Montreal, Buffalo, Cleveland, etc. Sort of like the Fall of the American Empire map but smaller region centered just on the lakes.
Unknown (Variants) AceRimmer Oct 05, 10:16 am
Frigate,

I have, in fact, secretly harbored a desire to create an Atlantic Canadian variant (I honeymooned in Nova Scotia... magnificent!), but I've always figured that I haven't the time or the variant-creating experience to make it happen. I've also contemplated using such a map for Civ Dip... oops, shouldn't have mentioned that Smile

David has some interesting points and some truth to support them. Drawing from amongst Americans (in Maine), Acadians, British, native tribes, and/or the Canadian provinces (Newfoundland, Labrador, Nova Scotia, PEI, New Brunswick, Quebec) you could probably create historical powers... they just wouldn't be compelling to most Dip players. So, the map would probably not become a cult favorite, but that doesn't mean it wouldn't be fun to create/play. After all, I'm GM'ing a game of Asian right now, and it doesn't have any real-world basis beyond geography.

So, yeah, I'd enjoy collaborating on this (I think).

Note on the Great Lakes: isn't there a Great Lakes variant in the DipWiki using native tribes? Anybody ever played it? Should I host one?

Adam
Unknown (Variants) FRIGATE Oct 05, 11:25 pm
I've seen some great lakes maps, but again with the history thing.

I'm actually hoping that the lack of history will work in my advantage. There are some world maps that split Canada in two, have a "Quebec" that for some reason owns Newfoundland and Toronto. I'd be working within the Maritimes mostly, an pretty uniform area, so arbitrary divisions might actually work. I'm also going to look into the history of native peoples in the area and see if I cannot do something with regards to that.
au contraire... (Variants) Kenshi777 Oct 09, 03:13 pm
There is a long history of powerful Native American nations all across eastern canada and the NE United States. Many of these formed lasting alliances with the European colonists (if *they* must be included at all Smile

Some will say they were all land based powers, but a significant amount of raids were made along the rivers and the Great Lakes, and to a lesser extent, along the Canadian and NE England coasts. Not every fleet in a dip variant need be a trans-atlantic galleon...

There is a wealth of historical material available at various points in history to make a playable variant here. Consider the Ojibwa (Council of Three Fires), Iroquois Confederacy, Great Sioux Nation, Mi'kmaq, Inuit, and many other Iroquois and Algonquian peoples.
Unknown (Variants) FRIGATE Oct 09, 05:42 pm
Also, I am part Mi'kmaq (1/16th or something)
any progress here? (Variants) Kenshi777 Nov 23, 11:39 am
I'd be interested in seeing how this variant develops. Please also join (and include0 DVWorkshop(at)yahoogroups.com on your posts, as you'll find more than a few folks there that have experience designing variants and can offer useful assistance.

Hello, I'm new - FRIGATE   (Oct 02, 2009, 7:33 pm)
Hello, I'm new to this website, but not to Diplomacy (I have a few years under my belt)

I wanted to say hi to everyone (not sure where else to do that) and also ask if there is any place to find more site info? The interface here is different from anything I've ever used before.

[Reply]

somebody should have answered this before now... (Community) Kenshi777 Jan 28, 03:35 pm
case in point that these message boards don't get enough attention -

First, allow me to welcome you to DiplomaticCorp, albeit belatedly, and suggest that you monitor the webpage often, particularly the "Open Games" option at the top of the page. Selecting that link will take you to a listing of the games that are currently open and looking for players. Selecting Join this game! there will trigger the email process between the GM and yourself. The GM of the game will typically explain everything else you need to know (other players, deadlines, maps, etc.)

Once you have a game going, browse the site for all the cool gee whiz features like the statistics, DipWiki, variant listings, and of course the rankings.

It's also a very good idea to have an adjudicator program (I suggest Realpolitik) on your computer for use in games. Google "Realpolitik Sourceforge" and you should be able to download the most recent version.

Aside from that, I would also invite you to join the Facebook page for the group (search for Diplomaticcorp).

If you're still looking for a game, and open to variants, I have open slots in my game of Sengoku available right now...jump on in, as long as you're willing to commit to playing the game through to completion.

This game is nuts...



Balkans lent Austria a hand, but forces in Tri and Gre didnt get the memo... which barely saves Spain from dropping to last place. Russians trade Bud for War, and a plague in Saint Petersburg sees everyone scatter from the region. Lowlands give off a sigh of relief that they wont be forced to live in France, Norwegians turn their focus north, France liberates their Med port, and Italians continue their search for Dracula.



11th place - Frank Martin, Lowlands.



There are two retreats:



French A Gas can go to Par or Bur

Austrian A Bud can only go to Vie



Then there's a matter of new units:

Siberia is cold and brutal. The player, not the geographic region. Not that I know the actual negotiations, but it sure looks like a case of stab and stab again. So it appears that this new SIP alliance is carving up India while Japan sits idly on the sidelines.

Is there a solo to be had? Can India's weakened position be leveraged before he has gone the way of the vinyl record? I get all tingly just thinking about it.
