Posted: Tue Jan 03, 2012 8:45 pm Post subject: Diplomacy
Diplomacy - a game mostly about negotiation, alliances, and backstabbing, set in the theater of pre-world-war-one Europe.
This is a board game that works well (some would say better!) played by email/forum. It requires 7 players - if you are interested, please say so below.
FAQ:
1. Do I need to know how to play?
No, I can run an intro session at the club, or there are many rules guides online.
2. How much effort will it be?
Around 5-30 minutes per week. The more involved you are in the game, the longer.
3. Do I need to attend the club to play?
No, but given that face-to-face discussion can be a useful part of the game, it might help.
4. Is it complicated?
The basic underlying game isn't much more complicated than risk, and there are fewer armies.
