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.
hmppfff, just wannted to post my moves as I noticed that grim already posted the orders. Sorry, whole family is sick and work is crazy ... Just one question: Are we talking about Tuesday GMT??? Becaus I though I had another half an hour before Tuesday was over everywhere in the usa...
I believe its game time, but could be because Grimbold is in not in the USA things are a bit off. With fourish days between orders due, should have plenty of time. Sorry to hear you missed.

I will post orders at say 7am on Wednesday/Saturday GMT at the earliest. Most of the time it will be around 4pm Wednesdays. This is 1am Eastern Time at the earliest or 10am Eastern Time if I cannot make it in the morning. So for most of you, Tuesdays should well be over when I post. Sorry Melvyst and EM, but I just thought I need to be a bit stricter (and I said so when I posted the deadline.). At least for Melvyst, the situation has not turned out so bad. You even have one build!
Any comments?
Pope Chastises Germany's Inaction
Today before a gathered crowd of thousands of devout Catholics and clergy. The Pope publically chastised Germany for not protecting its people and its tithe generating churches. In the same address pope not-so-innocent the first threatened to excommunicate members of the french armies involved in the acts of aggression against Munich. Reich Furher, Kaiser Roll was quoted as saying in response, "...What? I have a busy agenda and can not seem to find the two minutes needed for the people of the fatherland"...
