I started [and pretty much ended] playing Diplomacy in 8th grade in Manhattan...I went to one of those to-the-left of Montessori type elementary schools where you basically did what you wanted. A bunch of us played Diplomacy EVERY DAY during school.
I sought to branch out and heard about [I may have the name wrong] Chess Club or something on 72nd Street(?). I went and they played Youngstown. I got spanked [I think I was France]. I've never played since and have always wanted to do so.
I tried playing Diplomacy on line in the mid-90s when the internet starting going full force but I could never hook up with a game, so I'm really glad, 35 years later, to be playing again.
This all leads up to...does a Youngstown game ever get going on here? And if it did, are there downloadable maps? I can only find a crude black and white version.
Thanks
