Since the mafia game isn't going on anytime soon, let's host a nice, slow game of Diplomacy instead! Sign up here.
This will be a standard 7 player game.

Rulebook for those unfamiliar with the game here (http://www.wizards.com/avalonhill/rules/diplomacy_rulebook.pdf).
Sign upsEngland: Generalstrife
France: Aquilae
Germany: Formerdeathcorps
Italy: Anarchy
Russia: Eternal248
Austria: Zaen
Turkey: Durbs
Stuff to remember:
You all are free to use whatever means of communication you want to at any time of the game. Only PM your orders to me though.
You have:
72 hours to send in orders for moving turns.
24-48 hours to send in orders for building turns.
24 hours to send in orders for retreat phases
If you go 2 turns without sending in an order, your country will fall to civil unrest and everything you own will turn neutral.
You will all make me love you forever and my life easier if you could include Diplomacy as the title in your orders PM.
Please title PMs as this: Diplomacy Season Year AD Country. For example, "Diplomacy Spring 1901 AD Germany"
Please make sure you have all of the PMs you sent set to save, so we can compile them at the end of the game!
Count me in!
I shall play France!
Never done anything like this, it should be fun....to get owned. I'll do england.
This should be a good warmup for my massively more complicated RP.
I'll take the German Army.
I'm new to this, but I'll give it a shot. I'll take Turkey.
I call Austria.
I'd like to reserve Russia, but I'm currently reading the rules. It seems complicated.
Looks like Europa universalis 2
Cool, I'm taking Italy.
Actually, I withdraw as Russia. I think I want to see how this plays out before participating if there's a next one.
If you guys ever need help or clarification, contact me on IRC or PM. Just putting this out here.
Hmm, I agree with Eternal. Besides, I have the Viper RPG to focus in.
I'll wait and watch how this game goes.
Withdrawing from France

Pas! La Russie et je, est tête hors à Cuba pour le temps être! Vis à tous!

France

ahh I'm scared, dunno what to do XD
Stop withdrawing guys, this game can't get off the ground if you don't play =(
Alright, since ST4R is a leavingquitinger jerk, the signups now have a deadline of 6:00 PM/18:00 PDT. If we have less than 7 people by then, then Italy and Germany will become a neutral county, in that order, and the people on those countries have to choose to be Russia/France.
Fine, fine. I'll be Russia... again.
I think you can take england et, I'll just ruin it X_x
Alright, it seems that everyone is set. So, we start the game of Diplomacy! Aquilae will take over France, and Italy will be neutral and have their units hold every turn.
Deadline for Spring 1901 A.D. is 27/5 4:30PM/16:30 PDT. Send in your commands by then via PM.
All right, it seems like
some nobody has read the
RULES (http://www.wizards.com/avalonhill/rules/diplomacy_rulebook.pdf).
When ordering your units, it has to look like the following attachment. Specific orders, for each unit you want moved. If you don't give a unit an order, then that unit will hold and do nothing.
holy ballsack, I donate my country to eternal and merge under his banner
Bonjour people,
I'm open for alliances, anyone who wants a little help please feel free to contact moi. We French are very peaceful people, so please don't attack us, or you'll feel the full wrath of ze MAGINOT LINE
Whoever allies with Russia gets free vodka!
This is your friendly reminder that you have 24 hours to send in your moves. Or else ♡
Nah, jk. I'll be lenient with you guys, since it's your first time. Remember, if you ever need help understanding or anything, hit me a PM or on IRC.
Hey, after every turn are you going to post a new map with the new unit locations?
1) Yes
2) Everyone, please send in your moves
3) Durbs, are you going to move the rest of your units?
Waiting on GeneralStrife and Zaen for commands. If you see them on IRC, slap them for me.
I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THIS GAME ON THE MECHANICAL LEVEL.
The guide didn't help me at all, as it is far too much to think about all at once, being new to this.
IM SCARED
GET ON CHAT YOU DAMNED TWIT!
MOMMY
If everyone is wondering about the delay, it's because GeneralStrife here doesn't know what to do and he won't come to chat to get help like half of the people did.
I gave my land to eternal, I join the motherland, he promised vodka for f$#@ sake.
...Just get on chat.
