Fredrik,

That was truly enjoyable thankyou. It reminded me how much more time i had at the start of the game to sync the plot together...

I'm impressed. What a great idea to keep a diary. And to such level of detail. Reading it I felt I was part of the story. Well yeah, I WAS part of that story but I mean to say that for anyone unfamiliar with this game it would feel like they were there.
Thanks for sharing Fredrik.

All,

I hope that my dismal performance in this game was partly offset by the storyline that I spun off with Stephen during the course of the game. My only defence is that Stephen started it, and I thought it would be a nice way to pay back some of the investment he made in the game. See the attached pdf for our conversation.


This was my first ever game with Fog of War, and I did not know what to expect. I certainly thought that I would get some more time to explore before meeting someone, but as it happened I met up with Mike already the second year. From then on I scrambled to collect as much information about the territories around me as I could. I left off exploring the south and the waters for as long as I could (although I always planned to explore the waters). Pretty soon I knew that I was surrounded, and the final attacks came quite soon after that.


Looking at the final map, I think that I had one of the hardest starting positions, with no home centers right next to each other, and surrounded by enemies, at least one who knew where the edge of the map was. That is no excuse, and I probably could have done better.


Thank you Stephen for a great game.

Diplomacy games may contain lying, stabbing, or deliberately deceiving communications that may not be suitable for and may pose a hazard to young children, gullible adults, and small farm animals.
