Re: Lusthog gunboat anyone?

I should pay more attention to the forums.

If the third lusthog is close to being filled, I'll take one of the spaces.

If it isn't close to being filled I will also take one of the spaces, but may need a reminder that I signed up when the game gets going!

Re: Just convoy around

After you select the option to move to Venice, a further dropdown should appear with 'via land' or 'via convoy'. If you select via convoy, you can make this swap. You know what, I've seen that via land selection every day for the year and two days I've been playing on the site and never even consid...

Just convoy around

A question about convoying. I'm sure it has been asked before, but any previous post wasn't obvious when I looked... My understanding is that if you have to adjacent coastal provinces, and want to swap the units in each (i.e. unit in A goes to B whilst unit in B goes to A), this is possible if you c...

Re: Ghost Rating Challenge - Public Press Edition

Bump for the sub in the second game.

If we don't get one soon we might cancel the game and restart, if the French position is the problem.

Re: seeking players for gunboat with EOG discussion so we can improve

Here is the Pastebin of Russia's thoughts through game 1. It's a bit slapshot, I was planning on writing something a bit more thought through before posting but I'm a bit manic at the moment.

Hopefully it explains some of the stupid moves I made...

Re: seeking players for gunboat with EOG discussion so we can improve

I actually mimicked his journal in a simplified way using Excel to note the predicted and actual moves, as well as my analysis for the current and next turns. That's a brilliant idea, and so much more useful than the weird stream of consciousness I have going on as I slowly descend into the madness...

Re: seeking players for gunboat with EOG discussion so we can improve

If you still have space I'd appreciate taking part. My gunboat game is seriously lacking and this sounds like a great idea to build on ideas and improve (as a group as well as personally)

Re: Missed opportunities

Thanks for the analysis. I probably misrepresented myself in my initial post, I am happy with the result and figured a public press game would be more difficult to score a solo victory given everyone has all the information. The fact that the game has been stuck in my head for the last few days just...

Missed opportunities

I recently finished up a game as Germany which came to a draw but which I'm sure I could have won. The problem is that however I played out the game in my head, I couldn't make it work, so I chickened out and played it safe.. https://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=322994 What am I missing, if any...
