One question though. Can I support a foreign army? Or can I only support my own?

Also, is the starting turn in Spring? Or fall? Do I have to issue build commands? Or is it done automatically. Is it done after the fall turn?

Lastly, are all the orders completed at the end of the turn? I.E. Do all the moves and attacks happen suddenly? Or is it as I submit?

1. There's a reason they call the game Diplomacy. Support from other countries is the only way to win.

2. The starting turn is spring. Your forces will move again in Fall.

3. The orders are completed at the end of the turn. All moves and attacks happen simultaneously.

Lastly, a list of all the people and what country they are...

Oh also, when counting the number of armies you have...

You only have the amount of SC's you own. But does this only count SC's outside of your home?

I.E. If I move a unit off of a home SC, onto a foreign SC, do I gain one more unit? Or not because I only have units on 3 SC's.

Press is the key to winning. I suggest you introduce yourself to the other players and start your dialogue. You'll soon figure out who is who.

If someone (dunno who) would uncheck their "wait until deadline" box then we could have this turn done in 20 mins.

Umm, quick question, whats bounce mean ?

Two forces of equal strength tried to occupy the same territory, therefor they "bounced" back to their original positions.

Wait, are the build orders given during the fall turn? Or after as a pseudo turn?

Sandman · « **Reply #176 on:** October 16, 2005, 10:24:21 PM »

Build orders happen only during the winter.

Do enjoy not answering the questions?

After the end of this turn, there's going to be another short turn to determine build and abandon orders?

Also, who are the gnomes of zurich?

That was the answer. In the game, much like this planet, there are seasons. It starts with spring, than summer, fall, and winter. Then, it's spring again; a neverending cycle until someone controls eighteen supply centers.

There's a spring move and a fall move. There is no move in the summer. After the fall move there is another phase called "winter adjustments".

This is all pretty basic stuff and it's all covered in the rules.

As for the Gnomes, he's an observer.

Can you and the Gnomes see all conversations?
