Diplomacy has been around forever (well, since 1959 to be precise) and is often named as one of the finest board-games ever made. There have been tools to play it online since before the WWW, and there have been a couple of (abysmal) computer games based on it, but now there’s a reasonably good graphical, www-based version in development on sourceforge. You can check out the official homepage, which has some screenshots to give you a sense of it. Anyone interested in playing if I bring up an installation of this on my server? I’d love to get a game going. The rules are drop dead simple and if you like something like, say, Axis and Allies but without the luck and dice rolling, chances are high you’d really like it. Any takers?
