mods help
can someone help us out with this game? crealay has abandoned his account (we all know him in real life) but he isnt CD. we want to find a new player, but we dont want to play 2 turns of grabbing austrias supply centers and then have a replacement join. could you please boot him or something? by the way, the reason why we finalized his orders is because he gave away his password when he left so we've been finalizing to hold.

Moral Dilema
I started playing dip about a week ago, and have consequently lied outright to a couple of people. I feel really bad cos i'm a nice person normally lol but is this just part of the game to lie well and choose your battles, or is it better to try and remain truthful while secrectly trying to get people to do what u want them to?

Dedication and interest but no points?
I want to set up a game for players who are dedicated and want to play Diplomacy actively instead of treating it like Risk but have few points.

Apply within.

New Player in Private Game
I have started a private game and a player had to drop out. I sent the game "sting" to a new player to join and take his place. The new player received an error stating, "Could not join game: You haven't specified which country you want to take over." How does he join and specify the country he wants to take over?
Thanks

A discussion: for those who prefer WTA games
Friends - I was away for too long and my 'league of real dip players' thread fell off the forum =( so I missed almost all of that conversation. I want to seriously start an effort to 'organize' fans of WTA... both to create more wta games and to help newer players learn how to play wta well. join me inside.

Yes but it requires good diplomacy to get Russia out of the way...

Errrr...why would you forego Holland in order to have a chance of taking Warsaw? Even if you manage to take Warsaw and Holland the year after...I don't see where you go afterwards. The only way to advance would be to have a strong South-Eastern ally, but having one of those drastically cuts spoils to Warsaw, possibly Moscow and that's it.

And you leave yourself too open to England/France.

it can be useful under very specific circumstances... for example if you feel you have a solid EFG western triple... but even in such a case, Den is usually left for England while G takes Hol in 01. though I guess you could let E take hol so G can bounce R in Swe in the fall.

but for this to be useful at all, you have to almost be positive that Russia will open Mos-StP... otherwise its a big waste as you wont get War. you would also want to be sure that either T or A is actually with you.

you CAN hold off an E/F stab if you actually get War/Den... but it will be very tempting for either or both to stab you in 1902 or even 1901... so long-story-short... it is a very risky open and will only succeed if you are an amazing diplomat or if the other players in the game are particularly dumb ;)


the more common and defensable western triple is for G to open:
F Kie - Hol - Bel
A Ber - Kie - Hol
A Mun - Tyl - Ven or s Pie-Ven

while England takes Den/Nwy and France takes Por/Spa and moves his fleet to either WMS or Spa(sc)

hope that helps.

ok so:
Here are the districts which look abnormally large: Budapest, Moscow, Burgandy, MAO, Moscow. We you look at the ACII map though these provinces are put into perspective.
Any thoughts? should there be a better map without the injustice put upon certain provinces placing and the sizes of them on the board?: thoughts...
