Dear all, I am ready, willing and able to play. Admittedly, I don't have vast amounts of diplomacy experience but am willing to give any variant - even a developmental one - a red hot go.

Looking forward to the go-ahead,

Paul Howell.

Hi,

Aegean looks like a great variant and is definitely one I've never played. I've played a handful of Diplomacy games at DC, but quite a number at the sister site of Redscape. You can often find my opinions posted on Redscape's political forum, however I am sick of the Reverend Wright topic.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Cheers,

Mark-sandiegosmith

Welcome Dip Friends,
To this game of Aegean Diplomacy!

This is the first time this game has been played in dc, and really the first time I've heard of it being played anywhere - so it should be a pretty experimental game - hopefully a lot of the basic strategies of standard 7-player dip will be equally applicable here, so you're not totally in the dark about what to do.

Being the first time played, I'll run it completely random for the countries. So take a moment to reply to me (or the group) to let me know you're still interested, committed to play to the end, and if you like, a bit about you, especially the new players that I dont know here.

See you soon with country assignments once I hear from all 7!
-mike
