Why are they always 5 minute phases, never 10? 10 minutes is so much better, actually gives you time to think, or get up for a bathroom break, if and when necessary. Not to mention, agree to finalise, and it's just as fast as a 5 minute game.
what do you all think of an alliance between italy, france and austria?? austria and italy probably has to face a juggernaut and france has to face germany...
In classic Diplomacy, I am incapable of getting anything going with Russia. England always comes in from the north, Turkey from the south, and Austria and Germany usually aren't too friendly. Any ideas as to how to survive as Russia?
I'm considering joining some games where players have left. That way I might practice moves in cornered situations and also shake up the game a bit, making it more interesting – I think. Is this appreciated by the others players that have been abandoned by someone CDing, or will I get accused of massaging my rating by aiming at a cheap survive?
the big map is the same exact thing as the smaller map it just shows the smaller map with more detail so really neither is more accurate. if your ever questioning how something happend or if something is possible the best thing to do is open it in the big map just to check =)
The L in Lvp looks like the border between Liverpool and Clyde, but it is not. The border is the little dash after the Cly abbreviation. Perhaps that was the confusion.
The border between Clyde and Liverpool is at about the same latitude as the northern tip of Ireland, if that helps. Maybe you're confusing the border with the letter L, which is what I did for a while.
I see it though. To the left and slightly up of the dot representing the city of Edinburgh itself, there's a line in Clyde that has no purpose other than to demarcate its border with Liverpool.
"Actually the border between Edinburgh and Liverpool on the small map doesn't exist. It looks like they don't touch except at one point (the corner) "
What you are seeing as the border between Clyde and Liverpool, is the L in Liverpool, not the border. The border is further north. Edi and Liverpool do have a border of more than the corner.
We are meeting at 10:00 this Sunday at Dice Dojo. That is at 5550 Broadway on the North side of Chicago. A couple of players had to drop out. Anyone interested, please post here.

I think it would be useful to have an additional chat tab where your own country is listed, in which you can talk to yourself. Not only would it introduce a new dimension to the game for schizophrenics, you would also be able to take notes about the game and remind yourself to do things.
