How do I create a France vs Austria game?
I would like to play 2 player game with a friend. How do I create a Classic map - France vs Austria game. I can see the game type listed under variants but when I go to create a game I can't see an option for this variant. Suggestions appreciated :)

Vdip points vs webdip points
I'm sure this has been asked many a times, but without a forum search feature, I have to ask again.

What is the difference between vdip points and webdip points? It seems like webdip points are the ones you bet and receive for games, like on webdip, but I don't understand what vdip points do.

How Do You See Dislodged Units' Support Orders?
If I'm looking at a map and trying to see the orders someone else gave to a unit that was dislodged, how do I do it? Maps only seem to show failed movements by dislodged units.

I've played on dipbounced and dpjudge where written orders are resolved and published, but it doesn't look like it's done here.

so you could imagine this a bit like the hunger games. All players fight, and a gamemaker (me) spices things up. But here it's not about explosives of flames etc, but natural disasters, accidental military clashes etc.

I will not participate as a player, but announce some developements each turn. I.e. "the Ruhr area has been hit by a surge of crime and violence, to the effect that the garrisoned German army there has to remain there and tackle the evil forces."

Players are encouraged to add to the mix, for example France could announce that it sends help by support holding Ruhr, or just say it offers to deploy some of its best agents to help the German Forces win the fight against crime.

Things like that I will take into account (or not) and could result in a wave of gratitude from the German population feels towards France, making it politically impossible for the German government to attack France for half a year.

Apart from that, the game will be played according to standard rules.

WTA, unrated, 2 days per phase.
variant depends on the number of players.

This sounds quite interesting! However, I was just wondering how it would be decided which power it would affect; so would it be random, or perhaps whomever has not been paying homage to God ;)

I will decide everything as I see fit. But as I will not participate, you don't have to take me into account ;)

@Lukas no, I think that might get too chaotic. Then Germany would be like "and we shoot sleeping gas onto the gorillas and it flies to France, disabling the Burgundy army!" That would just make everything too confusing...

Looking for VDip old timers for a project
Hi folks

Got an idea I wouldn't mind bouncing off a few VDip old timers. If your blood doesn't go red hot when you see a posting under my handle and you have maybe a couple of extra hours to give back to the Dip community each fortnight or month, I wouldn't mind starting a PM dialogue with you. If my subsequent PM discussion interests you, that's fantastic. If not, I won't stress either.

Is "Throwing" a Game Allowed?
I'm playing a game where one player has admitted to throwing a game to another because he's in a difficult position and isn't willing to play it out.

This game is becoming critically turned around because of this, so I'm wondering if it's possible to get the game cancelled because of it. I don't really want to do this since it's a neutral throwing the game to my ally who's been cooperating with me since the beginning, but it seems like the right thing to do.
