For your information I'm also in the process of moving so this week I might not be very responsive! Next week end I'll be good though. Let that not be an excuse not to write to m |

Hey folks,
Looks like I'm able to leach internet from my in-laws until I get wired at my own place. I'll be moving in about a week from now, and hopefully I'll have my own connection a few days after |

There is a chance another game of 1648 will see the light of the day in early September. That'd give me a chance to play rather than GM!

Don't you guys think Chaos disproportionately favours the peripheral powers? Considering how Germany, Austria and Italy struggle enough as it is, don't you think this is detrimental to play balance? |

I think it does and it doesn't.
Chaos seems so random in terms of whether or not you'll make it to the midgame that I'm not sure it's significant. In surviving the early game, one's people skill |

Hey Cristiano, I think any good variant set between say 500 and 1789 would lend itself well to Diplomacy Royale. Papacy rules though perhaps not for the entire time-span.
