Captain of the Watch

Farsightedness: The Butterfly Effect states that a butterfly that flaps its wings in Malaysia could cause a typhoon in British Columbia. So too could minor variations in one part of the board affect play across the board. The Captain of Watch asesses the board for all possible impacts - both immediate and long-term.

I was happy to see my playtest getting that fast off the ground, though that in part is due to me reaching out to people outside of the DC community.

No question that I personally would love to see another 1648 game being set up since I myself would love to play. But beyond that, my favourite variants are:

- Ambition & Empire (amazing 10-player variant)
- Diplomacy Royale (a rules variant which fleshes out dynastic politics - fascinating stuff, if you ask me. Best combined with a medieval or early modern map variant)
- 1900 (a superior map design than Standard)

And I also obviously enough like my own other two variants:

- Locarno: Europe 1926 (see Dipwiki)
- The Road to War: Europe 1936

After 1648 filled up overnight - what's the next variant someone wants to play in or GM?
