This game of S&D Diplomacy would not be like the previous ones. The game will have players signed up beforehand, 36-48 hour phases, non-anon, WTA, Full Press. Each country will be given a target, no 2 countries will have the same target, nor will any 2 countries have each other as targets. Targets will be assigned by an outside 8th party, who will PM all 7 players their targets.
The first country whose target is eliminated wins the game, whether or not they themselves actually defeated them.
i.e.
France's target is Germany, but Russia invades all of Germany before France can. However, France still wins because his target is eliminated.
For this reason, Diplomacy is key, and alliances are always shaky. No one wants any one country to become too strong, but by retaliating upon that country you could lose the game. Heck, by becoming too strong you could lose the game! The very person you're protecting, could be the one targeting you. Once the country is dead we draw and crown the winner as
"Glorious Ruler of the Acts of Both Searching and, That Too of Destroying"
