Convoying
http://www.vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=1062

I thought an attack on a fleet convoying an army prevented the convoy from being successful. Can anyone confirm this?

New Variant Idea
I was thinking of a Cold War variant, but it would not just be a variant of Diplomacy, but in order for it to work, the Cold War itself would have to be changed. To start, it would have to be in just Europe, to keep a bit of simplicity. Also, the Soviet Union and the US would be too scared to start a nuclear war, despite the war becoming "hot." (More to come in next post)

Are we treating the French as NATO members? Since you bring up NATO HQ being currently in Brussels.
If you look at the map so far, yes gopher. ELIPHAS YOU BETTER SAY SOMETHING BY TOMORROW!!!
By the end of tomorrow.
The French while creating problems for the Americans in NATO would no doubt fall into line in event of an attack from the Warsaw pact.

Cool, I like the way that map looks. By the way, is the black line around West Berlin impassable except from east Berlin? Otherwise the East Germans can roast Berlin first spring phase.
Eliphas (926 D)
26 Mar 11 UTC
Yes, only East Berlin and Rhur can enter West Berlin.
Eliphas (926 D)
26 Mar 11 UTC
I guess I should make it a pixel thicker. And show more clearly that it does not touch any other part of East Germany.

I just have a technical question I only bring it up because I noticed on this map too, but is the guy that invented the game from Britain? I ask because I see on the classic map and your cold war map the its called Rumania, while in the US we call the country Romania
Eliphas (926 D)
26 Mar 11 UTC
I think the original creator was from the USA. I am not sure why he used Rumania instead of Romania. The reason I did was just because that was I how I remembered spelling it from the original board.
It doesnt matter what the spelling is. One last tweak could be to add more non-SC places to the powers, and more non-SC spots to certain non-powers. Such as the overly large Italy and Turkey.
Hellenic Riot (1267 D)
27 Mar 11 UTC
I believe it is because Romania used to be called Rumania, at that time. Eliphas, did you do all that by hand, or do you have drawing software?
Eliphas (926 D)
27 Mar 11 UTC
I used paint.net.
SacredDigits (978 D)
27 Mar 11 UTC
It's different Romanizations of the Romanian name for Romania that cause the difference...much like how we went from "Peking" to "Beijing." Rumania was the accepted Romanization in 1901, that's changed now (I think circa 1940's).
Hellenic Riot (1267 D)
27 Mar 11 UTC
Peking just got renamed Beijing, i thought?

Bit like Bombay to Mumbai, Madras to Chennai, Calcutta to Kolkata?
SacredDigits (978 D)
27 Mar 11 UTC
Nope. It was always Beijing in China.

There was just a decision made internationally to use a better Romanization.

The Indian cities were, however, renamed due to a radical Hindi government wanting to move the nation towards embracing Hindi names, which was a big issue with the separatist Tamils, among others.

Interesting. Does Paint.Net work if you're creating a larger map, like a world-style one?
Eliphas (926 D)
28 Mar 11 UTC
You can create any size of map. The program is free to download and is installed onto your computer. It offers a lot more tools then MS paint such as layers.
Guys, he called it "Rumania" because (1) it's not an unacceptable spelling of the province and (2) he didn't want to have "Romania" and "Rome" being abbreviated
Shep315 (1435 D)
28 Mar 11 UTC
I was just asking because I was curious as to whether or not he was from Britain or the US, I assume it was something to the effect of color, colour, honor, honour and all that

So I guess you use a blank template?

Fog of War- Whos finalized
Whats the point in showing who has finalized and who hasn't in FoW, we find out who missed phases at the end of phases and its more of a pain then an asset when trying to find out who is slowing down the bloody game.
