How to play Diplomacy

Players negotiate alliances, then secretly order their units to move, attack, or support one another as they compete for control of supply centers. It feels tense and social, with every promise open to betrayal once orders are revealed. It suits 2 to 7 players, especially a full group of 7, who enjoy long strategic games of bargaining and bluffing; playing time is 360 minutes and the minimum age is 12.
