Hello,
I am just getting ready to start my first Diplomacy game by email with a
Gamemaster, one move a month. I have 10 days until my first move is due.
My question is: I am England, after some sporadic emails with Austria
(friend), Italy (friend for now), France (unknown) and Russia (unknown)
I"m pretty certain France and Germany are going to make a move against
England. Are there any theories for "evasive" moves to avoid a
German/France takeover? For every theory I read, i.e. England must take the
E. Channel, I read the opposite, England but not be presumptuous and try and
take the E. Channel.
Am I being paranoid? Is a Germany/France takeover of England even something
they would want to do from the outset of the game?
I apologize if this sounds stupid. Yes, I have the game rules.
Any tips, hints or similar you can throw my way would be most appreciated.
Thanks!
Halanna
