I don&#039;t know if all of you are interested in strategy world-domination-y board games or board games in general, but I realised the other day we have enough people to play the game satisfactorily. If you&#039;re more familiar with &#039;&#039;Risk&#039;&#039; (or &#039;&#039;Risk-a-Brick&#039;&#039;), it&#039;s a little similar to that, only all moves are resolved at the same time and luck has no place in it. It is a game about... diplomacy (well, duh!). There are seven European countries (so seven players or seven teams) at the beginning of the twentieth century. Each has the aim to become the reigning one by gaining control of half the map. The means of succeeding that, though, is where things vary. At the start of every turn, there&#039;s a phase of negotiations, during which people can discuss privately one on one or in groups (careful, though, spying is allowed :P) what they want to do, to ask for something, to offer something, to form alliances, to declare war, to make pacts, to trick, to attemt to double cross or triple cross or quadraple cross (or quintiple f player cross ;) ), you can lie, you can tell the truth, you can imply something, you say whatever you like. No restrictions. What you do afterwards is entirely irrelevant. Except for your strategy, of course. In the next phase, everyone writes down their moves (each unit on the map has a certain number of moves it can choose from) and then they are all resolved at the same time. Have they brought you closer to victory? Well, that depends on your strategy and the others&#039;.<br /> <br /> If you are interested in playing, tell me, and here are the rules: https://www.wizards.com/avalonhill/rules/diplomacy.pdf. I am afraid you will have to do some studying to play.<br /> <br /> I hope you like the idea!<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> Indeed I am! I actually own the game, but I&#039;ve never had enough players to actually play it. (Translation: I&#039;ve never had enough friends to actually play it :P) But yeah, I would love to play it, as I am a self-proclaimed board game nerd. :P</div>
