New Game Type

A little while back, someone mentioned a game type with a king, assassins, knights, and traitors who all had different victory conditions. Does anyone know the game type im referring to in more detail, and if so, would anyone be interested in trying it out?

Quick Question

So I'm in my, like, 4 game of colonial dip, and I am wondering why the trans- Siberian railway is present but unused. I'm hoping someone can explain this

Shep315 (1435 )

I'm thinking that it's because it is either impossible or very difficult to code that feature and that is shy the railroad rule isnt implemented

But if its so hard, why is it still on the map? It just seems like such a tease

See it as an invitation to fix the code :)

It's actually kind of easy to code...I just don't know why someone hasn't done it yet...

All you have to do is make each territory movable to those adjacent and to those one space away. Thus you can both move one territory at a time, and two at a time if desired.

But don't you also have to make that apply only for Russian units?

i think that could be done with a simple if statement

RUFFHAUS 8 (2490 )

I blieve that the TSR only owrks for Russia. However, the equally inexcuseable absence of the Suez Canal rule does not have nation specific clause.

xSMTx (847 )
29 Jun 12 UTC

Well technically, the Suez Canal hadn't been built yet, so I think that it is excusable. But, just the TSR, it still has an indicator on the map. I just think that either the coding should be made, or the things on the map should be removed

RUFFHAUS 8 (2490 )
29 Jun 12 UTC

Well, technically, the Suez Canal is in the game of Colonial Diplomacy, and it adds a great deal to the playability of the Turkish position.

And if you use you logic the Oceans are not sky blue, so they should be recolored some shade of dark grey, right? And why are the countries shown all colored in? Where are the topographical features?

Either you want the TSR in the game or not. Who gives a damn about what's on the map?

xSMTx (847 )
29 Jun 12 UTC

No need to get so upset, my God... I just feel like it doesn't add anything, but I don't care THAT much. No need to get your knickers in knot over my statement

ezpickins (1628 )
29 Jun 12 UTC

Is RUFFHAUS a troll or something? xSMTx brought up a valid point of why is the image relating to a specific rule there if the rule doesn't work

Shep315 (1435 )
29 Jun 12 UTC

I might be imagining this, but I thought I saw Oli say once that at the time it was difficult to do (when the site and everything was set up), but he hasn't had a chance to implement that, kind of like the "own both capitals" rule on the 1v1 ACW map

Oli (977 )
29 Jun 12 UTC

I have some ideas how I could implement this now. But it's really not easy and will take some more time. The colonial-map was the 3rd map I ever did.

xSMTx (847 )
30 Jun 12 UTC

It's probably my favourite map! So I didn't bring this up as a criticism, I just wanted to know there was something behind this that I was unaware of. You guys can do whatever you want with this, it doesn't really affect me one way or another

Oli, what were the difficulties? IS there a retreat option for russia and no-one else? i can't remember the details...

Oli (977 )
23 Jul 12 UTC

The problem is the adjucation of the TSR:
If a unit of another nationality blocks the way of a unit using the TSR, the TSR unit will stand off as normal at the place it is blocked. Example: Russia moves A Mos - TSR - Vla. China moves A Mon - Kra. There will be a stand-off in Kra. The chinese army bounces back to Mon. The russian army stops in Omsk.

Spain to North africa

How is this move supposed to be made? There's no option to go by land even though they appear connected. I convoyed with a fleet waiting in western mediteranean and it failed. Is this some sort of glitch?

A game where I am allowed to Meta-Game? O.o

Competition between you and your friends sure is fun, but sometimes its great to team up with them and conquer the world together. Well, if your looking for a game where you can do that then look no further. Sometime next week a game will be starting where you and one friend can team up to conquer the world. It will be a WWIV variant with two day phases. All that is required is that you message the creator, me, what country you are teaming up with.

Team Game Replacement Players

http://www.vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=8536
Replacement player for the UK and Amazon needed. If someone will be nice enough, the UK isn't in a bad position. This is a team game, and you'd have to respect that, I guess.

Also is there already a thread advertising countries in civil disorder needing to be replaced? If not, should there be a forum thread just for advertising inactive countries?

Creating Teams into variant maps

Until now every Variant maps considers each player independent and able to fight any other automatically.
But could be interesting to develop a way to create forced alliance teams, just like a country split into groups unable to fight each others (being the same nation...) but able to be controlled by different players?
Into the game they could then choose if cohoperating or acting separately, but never being able to steal SCs each others nor dislodging armies and so on...
