I have been looking into stalemate options that are a guaranteed hold, and I am fairly convinced I can pull one off much quicker than 10 turns, really - especially if I don't mind losing Tunis in the process. It would involve switching my fleets around in some silly rotation, but as long as I can do that on pace with you taking Tys, that would quite probably succeed.


Yeah, if you're aiming for a stalemate, it's totally possible. If that's the case, then just tell us ahead of time so we can start a new game first.

Well, it would have been for the Mediteranean only (making it only 'south of switzerland') as that was the ground of expansion for you guys - but I bet your response would have been to do the same for the eastern part of the map.

Yeah, that's fair. Our strategy for northern Russia was "hold fast until the southern fight can make some real progress. So I guess it makes sense that you were doing the same down there until the northern fight could make some real progress.

There wouldn't have been a northern frontier if I hadn't submitted orders while high.

Or you could have teamed up with me and actually taken some of your territories back from the evil Western alliance.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

I haven't played Diplomacy before, but I've seen it before and it seemed very interesting. If there's a spot open in the next round I would like to join.

Maybe I should just mod the next one. ^_^

Especially if STD joins the next game too.

Of course he's scared. He caught just a hint of what I can do. He should be hiding in his momma's bed.

And if we've got more than 7, why not do a variant?

I'll pair up with somebody if needed. "I haven't played Diplomacy before,"

I'm not afraid I just know I'll be getting what I have coming to me. I thought for sure I was going to get it this last game but I at least lived long enough to force a draw. I don't forsee me getting so lucky next time.

The fear is strong in this one.

It's decent in the first of gentlemen

Embrace the fear. It helps keep you alive.
