That was quick! – Turn 13 Diplomacy
OK, so after a brief pause (of several weeks) here’s Turn 13 of Diplomacy Russia still proving to be a burr under the saddle of Austria. Turkey is dissolving like a compass point witch. Italy is boxing clever with England. Here’s the final position. Tune in again next <whenever> to see the end game of thisContinue reading “That was quick! – Turn 13 Diplomacy”
Still on – a little like Donkey Kong
Nearing the end now, this has been a long and extremely strange game of Diplomacy
Sacrebleu! – Viva la (next) France.
We bid a sad* farewell to France who was crushed mercilessly by the grand Italian army. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it now. This just doesn’t happen! France is the strongest army in the game, Italy the weakest. Italy is supposed to be the second quote, the also ran and what about Austria?!Continue reading “Sacrebleu! – Viva la (next) France.”

Italy and Austria defy all the bookies by continuing to expand. France going gently into the night. Russia not giving an inch. Turkey fearing Austrian Christmas. England getting getting boots on the ground, slow and steady. It’s anyones game still (by which I mean not France of Germany) Huzzah! Vic

Top marks for sticking with it even though it was a doomed post. In the words ofContinue reading “Deutschland Unter Alles – Didn’t he do well !”

Well it didn’t end by Christmas, I didn’t think it would but you never know. A most unusual game. If you’ve ever played Diplomacy you’ll notice something odd…. Italy isn’t dead which is the normal course of events. This game is anything but normal. Germany is still hanging in there with it’s nothing to seeContinue reading “I never said WHICH Christmas it would be over by : Diplomacy 2014/15 Spring 1904”
