Spring 1872 Retreats Here’s the new look of the board: It is now Fall 1872. Powers should submit orders to me by Saturday, August 16th, at 9PM PST (UTC-8).

Spring 1872 Moves China locks down their borders by sea while Russia encroaches by land, and Japan's attention becomes split as they monitor the situation while also looking south. We're getting into the part of the game that really highlights the complexity and intrigue of the Colonial variant...

in to get town killed by talking out of my ass (NAI behavior)

Winter 1871 Builds China is probably quite happy to see all of their neighbors building fleets instead of armies... but Britain? Probably not so much. It is now Spring 1872. Powers should submit orders to me by Thursday, August 14th, at 9PM PST (UTC-8).

Winter 1871 Builds Armies in the west, fleets in the east! Lots of movement on this board, with Russia notably seeming to accept the loss of Odessa by not rebuilding in Moscow. Here's the new look of the board: It is now Spring 1872. Powers should submit orders to me by Thursday, August...

Fall 1871 Retreats Sorry for the delay on this one, there was an inaccuracy in the initial order resolution and we had to use a really convoluted process to correct it and get the map ready to move forward again. France was shown as ordering F Malaya to Bangkok(ec), when in fact they were...

Fall 1871 Retreats Here's the new look of the board: SUPPLY CENTER CHANGES: Britain has gained control of Bangkok, Ceylon, Persia and Upper Burma, but lost control of Singapore (14 SCs, +3 builds) China has gained control of Assam, Mandalay and Port Arthur (12 SCs, +3 builds) France has lost...

Fall 1871 Moves After some unfortunate delays, Board 2 is finally moving along with another highly eventful turn! Turkey clashes with both its neighbors with some real success, Japan and Holland stake their claims to the Philippines, and France continues to have absolutely no friends as best as...

Sorry for the delays this turn, but there’s a good reason for it: JALMONT is subbing in for Kingler as Russia! To help him get adjusted, the Fall deadline is being extended by a further 24 hours, to Monday, August 11th at 9PM PST (UTC-8).

Fall 1871 Moves On the western side of the map, things still seem to be moving quite slowly. Britain and Turkey can't yet agree over Persia, so perhaps Russia will sort the issue out? There's plenty more happening elsewhere, though, including a slow encroachment of fleets on Japanese waters...

Spring 1871 Retreats Here's the new look of the board: It is now Fall 1871. Powers should submit orders to me by Friday, August 8th, at 9PM PST (UTC-8).

Spring 1871 Moves Much like on Board 1, things are moving very quickly out of the gate here! France continues a difficult two-front war against Britain and China, while Turkish fleets barge into the Black Sea. Meanwhile in the northeastern corner of the map, things are strangely calm... who will...

Spring 1871 Retreats Here's the new look of the board: It is now Fall 1871. Powers should submit orders to me by Wednesday, August 6th, at 9PM PST (UTC-8).

Winter 1870 Builds Fleets seem to be the order of the day, as every country except France and Russia have invested in them. Also of note is the waiving of a build by Russia, which I can only imagine is because he wanted a fleet but didn't have a coastal center open to build one! Here's the...

Spring 1871 Moves Our Board 1 players have wasted no time putting their fresh builds to use, as Britain, Japan and Turkey are seemingly the first ones to find themselves under fire. The following units have been dislodged: British F Malaya (retreat to Andaman Sea, Sunda Sea or disband)...

Fall 1870 Moves After a bit of a delay causes by SOMEBODY trying to do silly things like "fixing their sleep schedule" and "self-care," we now have our fall orders to feast on! Focusing on the board for a moment, Turkey seems to be doing quite well out of the gate, Russia and Japan have kept...

Winter 1870 Builds Lots of fleets for Russia, and defensive armies from their new enemy Turkey! The chips have seemingly fallen in the west, but there's still much left to be decided there and elsewhere... Here's the new look of the board: It is now Spring 1871. Powers should submit orders...

Fall 1870 Moves Well that didn't take long... we already have some blood in the water! Russia sneaks into one of Turkey's home centers, but the Sultan may still get the last word with two fresh builds on the way. The big winner of this turn, though, seems to be Holland, who've quickly doubled in...

Spring 1870 Moves New players often view Diplomacy boards in ways that hardened veterans like myself wouldn't think of, and it's interesting to see some players go out on a limb while others mimic their Board 1 counterparts. Bounces in Rumania and Yellow Sea indicate Russia being kept at arm's...

Spring 1870 Moves New game, new players, new strategies, new action! Let's get this party started with some openings! Looks like everybody got where they wanted to go, with the exception of the bounce in Yellow Sea. Given the fact that it borders no less than seven supply centers, it makes...
