fighting

First off I do not want to offend anyone, please don't take this the wrong way. Why the fighting and name calling? Not everyone has the same style of play...that does not make them bad people. This site is supposed to be fun. Oli and others work hard to create variants and keep this site going, so for his sake, lets heed the last words that show up whenever he posts a new variant...HAVE FUN!

Game mechanics question

Can a fleet move from Portugal to Spain (sc), while at the same time another fleet moves from Spain (sc) to Portugal?
And, more important as there is an ongoing game, how does it work on this site?

Race for the Tape

In contrast to Austria and Italy, Russia and Turkey often make a strong alliance against the rest of the board, called a Juggernaut. But what happens when there's no one else to ally against?

you have to make classicVS... you made a classic map

TBroadley (1202 )

Yep. Now I see that.

It's in the middle of the list of variants on the "New game" page, when usually the variants are in order of date introduced.

Another interesting possibility... It's a race to the middle, much like England versus Turkey. One nation has the power of production, the other of position. It's... France vs. Russia! France has immediate access to both England and the Mediterranean, but can that surmount Russia's initial supply center advantage? We shall see.

Russia v Turkey should be a Russian victory every single time. If turkey tries to rush the Med, Russia gets Black Sea and harasses his home centers all game. If turkey defends Black Sea, he can't get to Tunis until 1903, by which time Russia has grabbed Norway, London, and probably Brest meaning he'll control MAO as well. Turkey has no chance.

drano019 (2710 )

Oops sorry, he'll have taken Sweden and Brest probably. Not London and Norway. Forgot its st pete sc, not nc. Duh.

Fauxlosophe (1191 )

Basically. France vs. Russia is a bit more of a toss up though, though I'd still bet on Russia.

The initial unit advantage means they can aim right at France's heart while France has to choose between self-defence and expansion. Unless maybe they could hold the stalemate on the third year a turn it into a naval battle. Even then, I don't like their odds.

TBroadley (1202 )
17 Jun 11 UTC

@drano: agreed. It's not balanced at all. What's needed is a nation to temper Russia's expansion in the north. England maybe?

@Faux: Russia probably does have a better chance. If he rushes France, he could conceivably have three units bordering France's homeland in two years.

And France's naval dominance isn't supreme either. Unless France sends F Bre south immediately, Russia can pick up the Ionian in 1902 unopposed. Then France is screwed.

France may be able to balance that out by churning out northern fleets while holding on in the Med. After all, Russia can only send one fleet a year down there.

Antagonism: Classic VS!

Italy and Austria often go to war in the Classic map, and get pounced on by happy neighbours.
So what if we removed the pesky neighbours?

There is a really nasty bug in the ClassicVS variant

You might not be able to view your home-screen if you play 2 or more ClassicVS games. I'll try to fix this, but it can take some time.
You shouldn't joint too much games, and I might have to draw ClassicVS games as they make problems without announcing (did so on 2 games already)

Ankara Crescent

Since spam and creative forum posts are so popular on this site, I think that we should play Ankara Crescent. You cannot post twice in a row. I will start by moving from Berlin to Vienna by helicopter.

Stalemate lines in Modern Dip

When they say (ie. Diplomacy strategy articles, etc) there is a Rostov-Caucasus-Iran stalemate line, they must also assume you also have control of the (Eastern) Black Sea? Would a Georgia-Azerbaijan-Iran line not be the same then? What would you need to control on the west side to make sure this line is effective? Also what is the Alexandria/Eastern Sahara/Ionian/Adriatic (articles only use 2 names but they're not consistent) line I keep reading about? Can someone actually describe this line?

ClassicVS Debut/Oli, You Are My God thread

First: http://www.vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=2391
England/Turkey VS. I figured this might be balanced, England's proximity making up for Turkey's build superiority. We'll see.

Second: Oli, this is fucking brilliant and I love you 'til the end of time.
