A chrysalis. /dev/joe Bluffer ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 14 Mar 1997 22:53:36 -0500 From: Dan Knapp (A.K.A. TheWiz) Subject: Re:Acka: Diplomacy > I am missing rule change proposals from France (Lestrade), Turkey (Red Barn), > Russia (Robert Sevin), and Italy (CnH). Here's my rule change proposal: Create "stealth armies". A stealth army is identical to a regular army, except that its movements (including creation/destruction) are not reported to players other than its owner. - -Red Barn ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 14 Mar 1997 23:09:55 -0500 (EST) From: JoshuaN@aol.com Subject: Re: Acka: Diplomacy Here are the build results, final positions and rule change proposals for 1901. Note that your votes are due by 2300 acka time Monday evening, but if all 7 players vote prior to that, I will process the votes then. Remember, you get one vote per supply center owned (nothing says each vote has to be applied to the same proposal, but I will assume that all of your votes are going toward one proposal unless you specify otherwise). Austria: army in Trieste. Italy: Build Fleet Naples Germany: A Kiel Russia: Build Army StP Build Army Mos Build Army War Build Fleet Sev England: Builds A Edi France: F Brest Positions: France: A Burgundy F Picardy A Spain F Brest England: F English Channel F North Sea A Norway A Edinburgh Russia: F Sweden A Vienna A Rumania F Bulgaria (East Coast) F Sevastapol A Moscow A Warsaw A St Petersburg Germany: F Holland A Ruhr A Munich A Kiel Austria: A Budapest A Serbia F Greece A Trieste Italy: A Piedmont A Rome F Tunis F Naples Turkey: A Constantinople F Ankara A Smyrna Rule change proposals: When you send me mail to vote on these, specify which country's proposal you are voting on. Reminder, I will not rule on a proposals validity until it has been accepted and appealed to me. Somehow, given a few of these proposals, I thought I might want to remind you all of that... Austria: Players may build units in any supply center they control Germany: Delete the following sentance from the game description: "A rule change that has a scope beyond the sub game will be ruled void." England: No Rule Change Proposal Russia: Here is my proposal (starting after the colon and continuing to the end of the message): Replace the statement (delimited by quotation marks) "A rule change that has a scope beyond the sub game will be ruled void." with the following statement (delimited by quotation marks) "A rule change that has a scope beyond the sub game cannot be ruled void." Remove the statement (delimited by quotation marks) "The rule change has no effect outside the subgame." from the rule set. Replace the statement (delimited by quotation marks) "Each Build Phase, all players shall submit a rule change proposal with their oders." (note that the misspelling of 'orders' as 'oders' is in the rule set, hence the misspelling here) with the following statement (delimited by quotation marks) "Each Build Phase, all players may submit a rule change proposal with their orders. If a player does not submit a rule change proposal with their orders, then the referee shall act as if they submitted the following rule change proposal (delimited by ~) ~Remove the first sentence of the rule set from the rule set.~ A player may not submit a new rule change proposal to take the place of this default rule change proposal, once this default rule change proposal has effectively been submitted." France: On areas with two coasts, fleets can roll from one coast to the other. Italy: Add 4 new supply centers in Cly, Apu, Alb and Ruhr, making the new required SC to win be 20. Turkey: Create "stealth armies". A stealth army is identical to a regular army, except that its movements (including creation/destruction) are not reported to players other than its owner. ------------------------------ End of Ackanomic Games Digest V2 #13 ************************************
