GAMESTART INFORMATION
Welcome to your gamestart on Diplomacy 2000.
The game is called "Fighting for Peace" - after the little euphamism you come across from time to time. I think it was Joan Baez who said, "fighting for peace is like fucking for chastity" - says it all I think.
Of those of you who expressed a preference, nobody got worse than their second choice - pretty good going in my experience.
Please (if you have not already done so) make sure that you get a copy of the house-rules off the Diplomacy 2000 site - read these carefully as they may contain wrinkles you are not familiar with (conventions vary around the world). For those of you not familiar with the British / European convention, note well that this game will run on 2 season years. In other words I need conditional retreat orders for all units for which a retreat is possible for each season. In the Autumn season, I need disband and build orders. Build orders can be conditional on the location of other units but not on other players' builds.
If you have not already done so I would strongly recommend you to familiarise yourselves with the advice and guidance on the Diplomacy 2000 website. It contains lots of very helpful stuff, even for experienced players.
Please send me a provisional set of orders for Spring 1901 as soon as possible - apart from being a sound practice anyway, it confirms to me that you want to play. Orders can be changed at any time up until the deadline. I will normally confirm back receipt of orders to you so that you know they have arrived.
The deadline for Spring 1901 orders will be Friday 24th October at 6.00 PM GMT. Thereafter we will continue running to 3 week deadlines. Although I will accept late orders up until the time when I adjudicate, you would be very unwise to rely on this as I will be dealing with the game on Friday nights on most occasions.
You may commit any sort of horrible act of deceit upon each other but DECEPTION OF THE GM is totally forbidden.
Have a good game and above all, enjoy yourselves.
