Newbie Dip game?

Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

Would any other inexperienced diplomacy players be interested in starting a standard game? Experienced players are also welcome, of course....

Oerdin: Your link just goes back to your post!

Here's the map:

You can download a program to manipulate the map and see how the game works at http://realpolitik.sourceforge.net

Also, if you search for them you should be able to find the PDF official rules.

Let's see if we can get three or four more people before worrying about game mastering.

Or maybe I'll take a nap instead.

We can use one of the online computer GMs. You just set the start time and the deadlines when orders are supposed to be in and the computer handles the rest. It even generates a map which shows who's units are where and which supply centers belong to whom.

I'll play if you're willing to put up with someone who has never played before. I'll also need someone to point out a post/site somewhere that goes over Dip rules and any shorthand you use to communicate moves to each other.

Edit: I see that the link in post above has what I'm looking for - let me know if my raw newbieness does not offend.

Frozzy

That makes 7 . If anyone else wants to join we can have a human GM, otherwise I guess we can use a judge program (though I'm not sure how that works, so someone who does should set it up).

A link to the official rules: http://www.diplomacy-archive.com/re...s/2000AH4th.pdf

Please either post here or email me (civman2000 at hot mail) with your order of preference for your country. Mine is R-G-T-F-I-A-E.

On fleet rome: everyone post your opinion on it here. I am opposed.

Other stuff: Everyone should post their email/other contact info. Also, how long do we want to have to get in orders? I would support 72 hours for moves, 24 hours for retreats and 24 hours for builds.

Oh, and chegitz, please be patient, some of the players haven't even read the rules yet

I don't have any strong preferences. France or Germany I guess. I Abstain on Fleet Rome. e-mail is foolish_icarus at hotmail.com. The times civman listed are okay as long they aren't shortened, I am okay with longer times.

Amon Savag: Would you like to GM?

So far if everyone is to have their first choices for countries only Germany/France and Austria are open. Of course, those who still haven't stated their preferences are free to ask for one someone else has already requested.

Fleet Rome voting is now 2-1-1 for.
