The thumbnail scares and confuses me edit: I was right to be scared, this game was utter nonsense in a great way

You removed all the northern fleets, but you never did get Portugal

The foreshadowing around 29 and a half minutes in where France disbands F Por and you say how it's kind of weird disband to make and Ezio says something like "well maybe you and Italy will just bounce in Portugal, like, forever", and you say "I wonder if that might happen" viewing this for the first time I had no idea what was about to go down, it's really so perfect!

Given that the bot was trained playing against bots, it’s possible the weird start was because “borrowing” Vienna for a fleet to march on France is a normal thing it developed, like borrowing Trieste.

It still makes me sad in my heart that you lost Denmark. If this was a normal game, you could have soloed.

Love this series and would love to see the rest of it if you could find the time to finish it.

I think it's very unlikely we ever continue this series - I really consider the Diplodocus video to be the finale of these, even though it doesn't go into anywhere near as much depth. We started this during a bit of a drought in games to cover, but then I went to work on Cicero and I was under NDA for a while so couldn't continue it, and by the time that expired we had a lot more to cover. Sorry about that :(

I tried to copy what you did in this video but Italy only bounced me out of Portugal a mere seven times before giving up. What should I do now?
@DiploStrats6 ай бұрын
Clearly you're not playing a high enough Elo game if Italy is that quick to give up!

At 54:06, you get pushed out of Moscow, but I don't understand why that happened. I would have expected that your attack into Ukraine would have cancelled the support attack. Can you explain?
@DiploStrats Жыл бұрын
There's a special rule for this - a unit can't cut support against itself unless it actually dislodges the supporting unit. So since Ukr's support is against Moscow, Mos-Ukr doesn't cut it.

@@DiploStrats that makes sense! Thank you! I enjoyed watching your video again. I probably should have been watching my chemistry lecture instead, but such is life.

Yo what if you put some music in the background, like chill classical or something like that to kind of “mood-lighting” things?

I've considered it, might give it a go for one of the videos at some point... I'm pretty music-illiterate though and I'm a little worried about it not ending up working well. Maybe in future!

How does civil disorder work? What triggers it?
@DiploStrats2 жыл бұрын
On webDiplomacy, if you fail to enter orders in time, you trigger an Excused Missed Turn and the phase extends. If you use up all of your EMTs, then you get booted out of the game, and your country enters all holds until someone else takes over - that's called Civil Disorder.

you should change the thumbnail to include it in the battle for humanity series, it isn't apparent that this is a meta ai game in the title. or somehow make it apparent this is a meta ai game.
@DiploStrats2 жыл бұрын
I would but I think the thumbnail attracted a bit more attention than the BoH series did, haha. I'm indulging in a bit of clickbait and leaving it as is :D

Please play diplomacy with chat gpt. It makes dumb moves like this. Id love to see you two commentate and play it. Spring 1904 Orders: Trieste to Serbia: This move aims to capture Serbia, a key supply center currently held by Turkey. It also frees up Trieste for potential further movements. Venice supports Trieste to Serbia: Venice provides support to ensure the success of Trieste's move into Serbia, reinforcing Italy's offensive strategy. Albania to Greece: Expanding into Greece, another critical supply center currently held by Turkey, consolidates Italy's control over the Balkans and Eastern Mediterranean. Marseilles holds: Maintaining the defense in Marseilles ensures stability in the Western Mediterranean, guarding against potential French or other incursions. Tyrolia supports Vienna to hold: Tyrolia supports Vienna, reinforcing the defensive posture against potential Austrian or other threats from Central Europe.
