Diplomacy 1: Learner Game

Diplomacy is a strategic board game. Its main distinction from most board wargames is negotiation: Players spend much of their time forming (and betraying) alliances with other players. Set in Europe just before the beginning of World War I , Diplomacy is played by seven players, each controlling the armed forces of a major European power.

Come on people, we have pretty loose time limits here, 3 days to say where you are building or removing a unit is alot of time. Lets keep the flow and momentum of this game going by hitting the deadlines.

For orders, I would suggest you post a set of tentative orders right away and then (if you want to change anything), you can post later with the corrected orders.

This way, I can give you the results of the orders earlier without having to wait.

...And thus the tale of Emir Tuktuk ends. As a once great leader balls up into the fetal position and weeps gently into the night...
...And the stone of the earth and the wind in the sky bowed before the wisdom of the Ancient One...

The State Paper

Russian troops rejoice as finally Kiel returns to the fold of Mother Russia. In more enjoyable news Turkish forces were found floating in the Black Sea in tiny curled up fetal balls. Hundreds were fished out of the salty brine and put into pickle jars to be sold in Russian bars all along the southern boarder replacing the pickled eggs generally found there. Czar Vardamir Postalot was quoated as saying on his recent visit, "Taste like chicken!'

Is this the right map? No builds on it, and there are grey patches.
