Title: Diplomacy (the game) - who wants to play?
Post by: bergeroo on April 04, 2020, 05:29:14 PM
Ok who wants to play Diplomacy. A very old fashioned game a bit like risk.

Does anyone know it?

Needs 7 players and each person is an old European power. You make alliances and move your forces around and try to take over Europe. I haven't played it before so I haven't mastered the rules yet.

We can play online here and set it up for one turn per day maybe?

It looks... fun? In a serious early twentieth century war kind of way.

About the game.

I have heard of it. I might have even played it before, but my memory really isn't great.

I'll have a look at it when I get back on my computer, but looks good.

I might but know nothing about it, is it easy to do? Something like risk would be easier for me.....

Get anything going here?

I played one standard game on Backstabbr early in Lockdown 1 that lasted a few weeks, and recently returned to take on a "gunboat" version without the messaging part. Completely different and I think the poorer for the lack of interaction.
