I win for stalling England. With one fleet. By myself. And stabbing France in the back. :D It's essentially me vs the world.

Moral victories are just a way losers console themselves for getting owned.  :dragonforce:

Also I couldn't help but notice throughout this whole game that you are doing INFINITELY better than me the first time I played.  Needless to say, Germany wasn't a country anymore by the end. :ohdear:

Yeah...  I've definitely gotten better at playing since then.  I got a lot of experience during the DiscWorld campaign.

In all the game I've played of diplomacy (except my first I think), it's always the allies I make that is the cause of my fall. At least Schezo was back stabbed too....

I would host one since I could get on top of these timezones and everything.  But I don't really know how to play still though, so that's probably not the best idea. :V

That would be correct if there wouldn't be a exception.

Quote from: From the Rulebook
Support is cut if the unit giving support is attacked from any province except the one where support is being given. The support is cut whether this attack on the supporting unit succeeds or not.



In Diagram 16, the German support isn?t cut by the attack from Warsaw because that is the province into which support is being given. To cut support, the Army in Warsaw would have to dislodge the Army in Silesia, not merely attack it.

1st: It was kind of obvious that Norway was in on the Germany alliance considering how NEITHER of them attacked each other despite being wide open to attack from both sides.
2nd: Schezo dies, then Dolls
3rd: Should give England my land? Or stall out until England dies before me? :3
4th: Good game fellas, cya next game.

Well, good game and I'll be willing to host for you Dorian....If you can direct me to the rule sheet (So I can stare hard at those little things) and how to make that map...

Also, all standing orders now is to lay down hands, we put up a good fight my people.
