The problem with trying to spectate a Diplomacy game from the outside is that, unlike Starcraft (and most other games) where the observers have as much or more info than the players and less bias, it's very difficult to tell what's really going on in Dip because the moves on the board are like a third of what's really going on at most. Moves are going to get made that look totally nonsensical to an outside observer, but most of the time there are very good diplomatic reasons for them that you have no chance of understanding. | ||

The best place to play is by far at : http://phpdiplomacy.net/ The place is very organized and a great place to start since you can just mass up games, kinda like an iccup of sorts. | ||

Not quietly, but with a style. I am going to point out though that you made yourself a target, especially with that English slave. | ||

Army in Province1 (P1) supports A P2 to hold A P2 supports A P3 to hold? If that's what you mean then if P2 gets attacked then P2's support is cut, but P1 is still supporting P2 to hold position. Unless you have them supporting move orders, then I'd need more details on exactly what you're talking about. | ||

P3 has support from P2 giving him a defense of 2. To dislodge P3 you'd either need to have one army cut support by attacking P2, and use the other two to overpower P3. Or you'd need to attack with all three against P3. Exact same scenario if you want to dislodge P2. You can dislodge P1 with only 2 armies though since no one is supporting him. | ||
