Training Programs
Should some of the better non-asshole players organize a regular schedule of games for beginner players to offer advice and help improving their games? I think that this might be particularly useful on some of the weirder maps where the tactics and dynamics are less standard and memorized than in Classic.

France in Modern
Viva la France!...no not really

The lowest of the powers by a lot
http://vdiplomacy.com/stats.php?variantID=19
France is competely below every other power not even cracking 1 in performance, over two times less than it's neighbor and strongest performer as of now Britain with 2.6.
Why? I believe there are several reasons.
A) Borduex is a terrible port
B) Only Mon is a lock
C) Britain has little fear from France because of Bord and France can't capitalize on British weakness as well as standard
D) Spain is a backdoor neighbor that almost always comes into conflict with France
Possible Revisions?
A) Add Andorra as a SC that connects to Bord, Nav, Auv, and Bar
B) Move Bord SC back to Brest
C) Add Algeria as an SC

Does Diplomacy hate France in every variant but Classic? It kind of sucks in Colonial too.

I've won Colonial 2 of the 3 times that I've drawn France. And I think got a three way draw after killing Tadar the third time.

I think Modern is an extremely well-designed variant, but I would agree that France is the weakest power. But I also consider Austria-Hungary even weaker in Standard. My only caution would be not to make Spain too powerful in the process by redirecting France elsewhere, as Spain is already fairly capable of taking advantage of its relative isolation. Adding a supply center to Sardinia, instead of Algeria, may help bring Spain more into conflict with Italy. This might be useful if BOR is to be moved to Brest.

Italy is far weaker than Austria in Classic.
airborne (970 D)

Look up Gamer's Guide to 1900 http://www.diplom.org/Online/variants/1900-GG.pdf in the 6h page it clearly shows Italy performing at a far poorer preformance than any other power
G-Man (2466 D)
19 Jan 12 UTC
Yes, and I'd much rather take my chances with France in Modern, than either Austria-Hungary or Italy in Standard.
airborne (970 D)
19 Jan 12 UTC
But, there is no denying that France is still a weak power. I'm just pointing out this and answering about hypothetical tweets if a Modern 2012 would be made

I think France could definitely be improved and like your suggestions a lot. I think moving BOR's SC to BRI will help both make France stronger and Britain a tad weaker. And Andorra is a great idea, particularly since it is France-friendly initially, due to Spain's F BAR at the start. An SC in Algeria or Sardinia should draw Spain more to the south, and perhaps making Ireland accessible to the Mid-Atlantic may also create more conflict between Britain and Spain.
