NMRs and Civil Disorder
I'm new here can someone please explain how the NMR and CD rules work here. How many times can a power NMR before they go into CD. What happens to the game if one of the powers goes CD? Is it canceled, paused? What happens to your bet? Do you just get it back?

Are countries assigned randomly?
New to this site here, so sorry if this is answered elsewhere that I didn't find. Are countries assigned randomly when a game starts? (I'm noticing in the Championship Belt Game Series that xorxes always plays Austria and captainmeme always plays France, but have not found any setting for choosing a country or assigning preferences or anything.)

Uber is kind of cool
So, I dont actually plan to spend money. But I downloaded this cool app called uber. I think its like, taxi cabs or toy cars or something. But they move. They wiggle around and travel places on this cool map that looks a little like real life. I watched this one car strolling down a highway. This is neat. How do I take over one of these cartoon car thingys

Incomplete orders on the small preview map are a problem.
Not all orders (most notably support orders) are shown on the small preview map of a game and, especially in Gunboat, this is pretty problematic.

Papadopoulus was indeed an inexperienced dumbass... but let's also take a moment to consider the breadth of dumbasses within the trump campaign and administration..... Donny Jr, Jared, Spicer, Reince, Carter Page, Cobb, Mooch..... on and on and on. They might have got away with this shit if they hadn't assembled such a giant collection of morons.

seriously though, you folks play diplomacy, which purportedly involves, logic, reasoning, and fact based conclusion drawing. Occam's Razor is a key philosophy when deciding how to play each turn. Why on earth do you insist on denying everything obvious? Put politics aside for Christ's sake, if we don't excise this crap now, next time around the roles could be reversed.
All this to say i am really confused by Trump lovers these days.

Papadopoulos introduced himself to Trump at a national security meeting as having connections to the Russian government, and spent months trying to use those connections to formulate a meeting with Russian government officials, all the while being encouraged by a campaign supervisor. But yeah I guess this has nothing to do with “anyone but Democrats” @PE

zzzz
you want Occam's Razor?
the same media companies found to be colluding with the Democrats to shape media coverage against an anti-establishment candidate during his election have been nonstop screaming about wild and baseless conspiracy theories tying him to a foreign power for a whole year, while a special investigator assigned to digging up whatever he can about aforesaid conspiracy theories has found nothing.
Occam's Razor would tell me that there is nothing to be found, not to keep blindly following a baseless accusation spawned from propaganda mouthpieces for an establishment whose chosen candidate lost an "unloseable" election.
If you cannot see how reasonable people could be skeptical about this narrative, the problem lies with you, not those reasonable people

President Eden (2750 D)

Manafort is the only one who's been charged with anything, and all of the charges against him are for actions from 2014 or earlier, sans a conspiracy charge for covering up those actions. Regarding any connection to Trump or the Trump campaign, this investigation has found nothing.
TrPrado (461 D)

The Gestapo has ways of coercing innocent people into pleading guilty.

They covered up Obama using the IRS to attack his enemies.

Getting one innocent person to plead guilty is nothing to them.

Former Trump friend Manafort has 3 different US passports under his own name and at least one under a fake name that's he's used to travel and possibly move money. The first to be indicted and a step up the ladder of Republican lies about what was happening during the election campaign.

Axis & Allies general discussion thread
See title. I started playing it about a month ago. It's quite fun and a very different challenge from Diplomacy. I'm still getting my head wrapped around the editions, but I believe my group plays the "Classic" version (Spring 1942 start and there are no artillery, destroyers, etc.)

A friend and I are also working on a "present-day" version.
