Variant idea!
Every Spring, only fleets can move. Every Fall, only armies can move. Convoys are allowed in Fall, even if the fleets involved already moved in Spring.

What makes someone "good" at gunboat?
Is it a specific set of skills? Good strategy? Communicating? What makes someone like SplitDiplomat better at gunboat than MadMarx?

Does a player who left the game share in a draw?
I searched the rules and I didn't see anything. It says 'surviving' players. So if a player left, but still has SCs and units, is he a survivor?

My two cents, ability to follow instructions breaks the tie so Espi gets the spot for adding his name to the list.

cb6000 also courteously wanted to PM me first to make sure he understood the position. Not that it's required. Again, I will gate based on prior history of completing games and understanding the commitment.

Jim and renash, while I'm super excited you're interested in being a student for this series, I may ask you to audit rather than participate in this SOW as your accounts are barely a month old and we usually look for players who are a bit more established; it's nothing personal; we've(/I've) just had unfortunate experiences before. With so many time, people, and effort that goes into this we error on the side of caution sometimes, and for that I apologize. However if we get no more sign ups or someone has to leave, I'm more than happy to have you participate.

Ishmael, again, thanks for the interest, and I should have been more clear in the OP, but with only 3 games and a fortnight under your belt I rather you watch and learn as part of the audience rather than a player for this game.

Quick rules question
I'm a little unsure about how coasts affect support orders. Consider the following scenario: England has a fleet in Norway and a fleet in the Gulf of Bothnia. Even though the fleet in Gulf of Bothnia cannot move to StP's north coast, can it support Norway's move to StP's north coast?

Cops frequently lie in the course of their work to coerce 'confessions'...
And then we are expected to accept their testimony in court to vote guilty to convict someone and send them to prison. When should a career where lying is an integral part of the job disqualify someone's court testimony?
