The game is called Diplomacy. Part military strategy, and part diplomatic
realpolitik. Each player controls a nation. You will submit turns daily
[or at a less frequent interval agreed upon by players prior to the start of the game]. Turns will be submitted to me via Private Message on this forum. The movements and battles will be displayed on various maps that I will post on this thread as the game progresses. The specific rules for how the game works and how it is played are in the instruction sheet I have made (see attached file).
The nations involved are as follows:
Austria
Britain
France
Germany
Italy
Russia
Turkey
Here is the layout of the game map and the various territories and supply centers (see instructions):
The first 7 people to post a message saying that they want to play are in. Be sure that you have the time in your day to participate. Multiple players can team together if they like as long as they all agree to it.You do not get to pick your nation though, that is done randomly and fairly in a predetermined fashion that I will announce later.
