In the first episode of the Diplomacy Games podcast we introduce the hosts kaner406 and The Ambassador, or as they are known on the web forums, Kaner and Amby. They discuss why they’re making this podcast for online players of Diplomacy. We then get down and dirty with one of the favorite variants on www.vdiplomacy.com, Known World 901. This 15 player historical game has many twists and turns. Kaner discusses how he brought the variant to the web while Amby talks about one of his recent Known World 901 games and his tactics and strategies he played to be part of a draw in a game full of big hitting players. We also talk a little about the mammoth 3 and a half year webDiplomacy championship. Visit http://diplomacygames.com/diplomacy-games-podcast-episode-1-shownotes for the show notes and more info.
