The Diplomats [Social][Recruiting]

Post by jigger1986 »

Welcome to The Diplomats.

This will be a social user group for players who enjoy using diplomacy as a strategy. Playing large map multi player games, with no spoils or flat rate cards. Setting up alliances and armistices, and knowing when to break them will be the main focus of games. I realize that there are a lot of people on this site that are against diplomacy in games, and some that play esc games exclusively to avoid it, not us! This group will be where those of us with a silver tongued can manipulate and deceive others to obtain victory, in an encouraging environment.

So you else is a Diplomat?

I'm in. Not a big fan of no spoils or nuke, but I love a good flat rate game on Third Crusade using diplomacy...it makes for a great game.

Sweet you guys are both in,
The issue I see with nukes is the bombing of stacks, although we shouldnt rule it out all together.

You are more than welcome to join jrh, in fact we'd be glad to have you. However, I know your not a fan of diplomacy. (are you not the founder of the Lone Rangers?)

I also assume we will be playing multi-team dubs games as well as larger standard games? Since dubs games require communication, and multi team dubs games can very well include diplomacy

no, I just posted cause I thought it was funny, good timing :P . I don't like diplomacy, and I hate stalemates, I know this isn't the group for me ;)

Yes, I founded the Lone Rangers

Is there really no more interest in this?

Surely there are others who enjoy a good build game utilizing the subtle art of diplomacy...

You should invite [player]Williams5232[/player]. He's big on this type of game. I, on the other hand, seem to piss everyone off and get eliminated early and often.
