Welcome onboard to the wild ride of Diplomacy! Gents! The train will leave the station in a couple of hours, make sure your hands and feet are inside the car at all times, and remain in your seats with belts buckled in. Desophaeus is not responsible for loss of limb or life in connection to your riding on this vehicular transportation. |

In the meanwhile, please send me a PM with a title of "(Country Name) Dip02 Orders", if you haven't, I will send you one, then that PM in each of your country name is the PM channel that you will submit your orders during the game seasons. And yes, you may also use that PM to ask me questions, of course if you were wondering. I also promise to have a map with colors marked for everyone, so we won't be working with a pure tan map lol. |

Protip: Keep communication going with press. Even if they are not next to you.

Protip: Keep communication going with press. Even if they are not next to you. I know you want to help and that is a perfect protip to mention. But understand that I work methodically one thing at a time when I explain Diplomacy because it can overwhelm with too much info at once. Look at PreDip01 as how I guided things at certain times when it was the right time. I made the mistake of overloading a new player with too much information when I was younger. I lost many prospective newcomers who could have become Dippers if I had allowed them to determine the pace instead of myself. As with PreDip01, I will progress through the first few turns in Dip02 in a similar fashion. For example, I will explain the building new units part after the first fall season is over in the game. |
