Bounce question

I really should know this, but thought I'd double check.

Let's say I have an SC that I want to build in. I move a unit out.I then send 2 units to both "attack" that SC. Now let's say one of my opponents attack the SC too, but support it. Now a straight 2 vs 2 results in a bounce, but what about a 2 vs 1 vs 1?

Support Rules and Dislodgings

I'm guessing you guys play by strange rules. I've never seen this not happen outside of here: One, if a force gets dislodged, the move cuts supports/convoys. Two, to cut a support/convoy, it has to get moved towards. The supporting or convoying unit doesn't have to actually get dislodged.

Is Diplomacy Ultimately About Luck

Years ago when I first bought the board game for a group of friends, some of them didn't want to play because they saw the game was all about luck. That idea still rings in my mind from time to time.

Is Norway Undervalued in 1066?

Something I notice when playing 1066 (v2) is that England and Normandy always do battle, and Norway usually has a lot of leeway to mop things up. I guess the larger size of the North Sea spaces give the illusion that Norway is farther away, but in reality, it's just two spaces away just like Normandy.

Looking For Replacement

Germany still has over 20 SCs, and Italy looks like it's going to overrun. We could use a German player to keep things balanced.

Rational Moves Test

You guys could really use some sort of test to license people to play games in. It's annoying when irrational players ruin the game for rational players by allowing third players to win after overrunning them.

Does Drawing in WTA Backfire?

I was wondering if the logic behind WTA draws isn't necessarily reliable. Draws allow people to make alliances, and instead of drawing against the solo winner, they simply draw among themselves instead of pursuing a solo victory. Is there a way to disable drawing so this doesn't happen?

Variant play testing (Gobble-Earth)

Hi
I'm looking for some people to take part in the play test of the variant Gobble-Earth; we have already filled it up halfway.

Snake IV (1154 )

I'm the developer of the variant map Gobble-Earth, which expands the original map to include the entire 1914 world. It's been playtested several times before and only need a short check on lab.vdiplomacy.com before proper games can be started here. The game is called Imperial Issues.

Below is a link to the map of the variant. It can of course also be found in the variant database in the lab

If you can pull off that map quality it'll be the best looking variant so far!

Colombia seems biased against with only 2 home centers. I see how it's to balance the early game, but that can really destroy it in the late game when it can't deploy units quickly enough.

Lukas Podolski (1234 )

Unless this is a build-anywhere variant.

Anyway we can discuss potential issues during the test-game.

Lukas, did you read the info on lab?

Lukas Podolski (1234 )

Sorry, I just did and I got it now. It's basically a trade-off of building in a colonial area and building on time.

Thanks for the link Scuba Steve. Only two more people to go now!
I'm happy people like the design of the map. I've tried to make it look like if it is from 1914. vdiplomacy of course requires another design, but this one is excellent as a board.

Colombia surely looks weak, but surprisingly enough (also to me) the play tests so far has shown Colombia to be better than average in performance. The home centers are of course an important aspects for any power, but once the empire extends more than three-four provinces from home they decrease in importance. The experience shows that building home and then moving the units to the front is rather equal to building a year later closer to the front.

Thanks for the feedback. All comments and thoughts are appreciated.

It's the weekend, so I figured maybe there's a handful of several people who want to play a classic game with 10 minute turns.

Please post here if you're interested. I'll check in regularly over the new few hours in case there's interest.

out of interest - what variant would you like to see as FoW?

This is purely out of interest. Add your variant of choice below, or if it is already on the list add a +1 to it. For me it would be:
