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.

Why bother? The game is all about luck anyway ^^

Might have something to do with where English fleets are.

While Norway is technically just as far from the British isle as Normandy, the country is actually further away from the supply centers. Because the greatest concentration of supply centers in that game is in southern England, Normandy is much close to the vital parts of the country. The 2nd closest English supply center to Norway is 4 territories away. The 4th closest English sc to Normandy is also 4 territories away.

As for undervalued, says who? http://vdiplomacy.net/stats.php?variantID=85
According to the statistics Norway is the best country in the game, and very few (competent) players who have played that map disagree that Norway is over powered.

Right.

I'm saying that when England and Normandy open, they focus on each other too much and should value Norway higher in order to play balanced strategies.

Looking For Replacement

http://www.vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=16061

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?

Does Anyone Want to Play a Live Classic?

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:

Lab Diplomacy

I cannot get onto labdip on my computer, it just says "Error triggered: require_once(variants/Carthage/variant.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory.

This was probably caused by a software bug. The details of this error have been successfully logged and will be attended to by a developer."
Has anyone else had this problem? (I am using google chrome, on IE it always says I'm using an invalid cookie).
