I am so up for this :D absolutely great idea

Count me in!

Right.. I can have more people..

Also guys, I need good diplomacy templates.

I will accept any and will consider them.

Before diplomacy template makers point the gun..

I will ask for permission for each template :)

Lets make this happen people!

I'll join, but only if you put it up to like, 14 or 15 people, 6 is way too small for any reasonable diplo game.

I can set up a scenario for you, given most of my current ones need at least like, 25 players.

I have no Idea what the interest is for a league like this..

And I did say I am accepting more

6 was the mininum :)

Since you posted after my edit, i'll say it again

I can set up a scenario or two, i just can't use any of my premade ones, cause they need like, 25 people.

this sounds amazing please count me in

Im also happy to make a scenario but I would need a fixed number otherwise the template would be useless if 1 more player joins

By the looks of it, We are gaining numbers.

@OnlyThePie Send me any template even if it doesn't suit. We are picking up numbers and it could be suitable.. Send me the link if interested! And if so Is it yours?!!?!

I understand..

We will wait till the numbers dry up.. When it does we will close the window for people to join the league and there we will have a fixed number! :)

This suit you guys?

I would love to be a player :)

I'd like to play as well

Count me in pls

I'd also develop a scenario more than happily given a set number. I'd love to join, but even thyough the grudges thing can sorta be solved, the competitivity of the players are REALLY going to damage to process, as diplos aren't made to be competitive. In a diplo league, competitivity levels are beyond that of your average multiday. So it's risky.

Also, I suggest using claim/pick diplomacy templates or anything of the kind. Reason? Well, simply because it's possible to properly counterpick in these templates. e.g in the 2014 map a common pick is to start in Nangcha, for a quick acces to a HUGE early income, and a common counterpick is Urumqi that allows you to take so many territories that by turn 3 you'll have him stuck while you're still growing, and you'll be able to declare war turn 3 for an easy expansion. That's the charm of pick/claim diplos, you're capable of putting your warlight skill into real test unlike in slots ones, who tend to be more stable and pure RP.

Another huge weakness for slots is that it's never truly balanced. Sure, you can adjust armies to be the same, but that's not enough. People in Asia, for one, will have a hard time, being amidst MANY enemies, while someone in Australia is isolated and easily defends. Means the Asian one is high risk high reward, since he can easily get "gangbanged", but also has a lot more space to grow. Diminishing the risk, by adding a heat-ish system where the more people you border, the more powerful you are, increases the reward's effectiveness. In other words, custom scenarios are hardly balanced, while a claim/pick will act like a roleplay-filled, interesting and fast-paced dispute for lands.

Thing is, people do tend to become PE really early in those due to picking something that someone else already claimed, so I suggest you make claims completely void and have people pick what they want.

Just my opinion at least :)

Edit: Worth mentioning that the recent map by zt, Orbis Veteribus Notus, is a great pick/claim map for diplos, with one little issue, the city only distribution is still not a thing >.<' I'm ultra hyped for the day he'll edit that into the map.
