New Variant: Weird alliances
Has anyone ever tried a variant where you're required to ally with a certain person for a certain amount of time? (Maybe three years?) I think it would be really cool, especially if you come up with some interesting alliances. After that initial period though, you could ally with whoever you wanted to, and stab whoever you wanted to... More below

Currently I'm thinking of something like E/R/I, G/F, A/T.

The rules would be as follows: You may not support any units with with you are not allied. You may not move into territories (Territories, not supply centers) owned by a country with which you are allied.

Other variations could stem from that - for example after the first three years, you'd have to publicly declare your allies, and the rules would still apply.

Any thoughts?

i wouldn't want to have to ally with Italy if i were england
You should hit Google and read up on the endless array of variants out there. Many, maybe most, have the benefit of having been play-tested and tweaked to varying degrees, which is significantly harder than it sounds. You could spend the rest of your life just playing already-made-up variants... which I believe is probably why the weekly "My New Variant Idea" threads don't get a lot of attention.

The England-Russia-Italy isn't too weird. Italy should ally with Russia and a Russo-English cooperation is supposedly pretty effective. I read somewhere that there's nothing better for England than a Russian army in Norway.

I played a fixed alliance game once and both me and my parter (R and F respectively) became very frustrated because our hands were tied in negotiations because you needed to convince two people and their interests didn't really mesh etc. In short, it was a total disaster. If you want a strange alliance, pitch it in-game.
I can't see how it would work. It isn't enforceable.

@ NPRZ, neither is gunboat/pp... You just password the game so that you only get people who know the rules and abide by them.

I've seen it done on fb - it's an interesting tactical varient, but it really reduces the game down to that level. If you have good players, you can try and learn some tactical nuances (onwanted supports etc), but unless it was for the minimum points, I can't see the appeal

I don;t think it would be properly balanced. The AT alliance is greatly in favour of Turkey if Austria can't make it short term, Austria would therefore be at a massive disadvantage. Also ERI would be weaker because the natural target of GF is E and the natural target of AT is R while Italy can't save both.

My strategy as EIR would be as follows - England and Italy fight against France, Russia sends its one navy to Sweden to screw around with Germany, while devoting all other resources to fighting A/T. Italy can devote one opening army to France and the other to Austria, and prevent the expansion of both.

A/T has the problem that it is very hard for Turkey to expand without going into Austria though

Moderator please unpause our game!!!
This game, link: http://phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=11392

has been on pause because of one player for I think slightly over a week now. The player did not leave a message reporting an extended absence before the pause was voted for, and I don't believe he was the original voter for the pause. Is there any way you can issue him as a civil disorder and unpause the game so we can finally play?

A bug with supporting a convoy.
http://www.phpdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=11598#orders

This isn't a big deal Kestas, but I figured I'd let you know. As Russia, my fleet in Baltic can support a move to Prussia, but if any unit were moving to Prussa, it would have to be convoyed through the Baltic. When I select it, it says no options available, you can't perform this order, so it's not really a problem, I just figured I'd let you know.
