>In August 2008, a copy of the game was seized by the British Kent Police because the balaclava included in the box "could be used to conceal someone's identity or could be used in the course of a criminal act"
Fuck this retarded country.

>dfw found out about Diplomacy 10 years ago
>still can't find 6 people willing to devote a day to playing it
>2 years ago, managed to get 5 (or was it 6?) people together, including a girl
>she quits about 2 turns in because she has "no idea what to do" despite me explaining the rules and the first two turns being successful
>it is current year 2016 and that time in 2014 was the closest I ever got to playing a full game IRL

What changed Britain so much?
As late as 1996 you could buy handguns and shit without much hassle, and now you're famous for needing ID to buy butter knives.

Our politicians knew that the average plebeian wouldn't give a shit, so they decided to implement a whole bunch of idiotic statist laws that lead to shit like this because it makes it seem like they're actually doing something.

Why not play these games on tabletop simulator together?
That would be fun for a Veeky Forums steam group to exist.
Matthew Brooks

What did you expect?
The only reason I ever got three decent games of it was because I hung out with nerds in highschool.
Jace Flores

I just googled and found a website that has diplomacy online. I don't know how good it is but it's out there if you want to try it

>is that some Saints in Armor kind of thing?
It appears to be in the same genre. Don't really know what characterizes SiA, but Chandragupta has a ridiculous command structure, guilds and tribes, as well as enough elephant units that rampage around to turn every match into a gigantic clusterfuck
