I can remember some distant games of Diplomacy - the board is still around. I have even talked with some friends about restarting. Now this:
Practical Leadership: Diplomacy is Fun Leadership Training
Diplomacy as training in trust ? Hmmm.
The game recently celebrated its 50th anniversary - with a rather disappointing reissue of the game.

I just got back from chaperoning a high school trip to Costa Rica. While there, some of the kids put together a make-shift Diplomacy game out of a pizza box top. Playing gave the kids and me fun lessons in leadership and negotiation.

Well, I didn't say training in trust, but now that you mention it, they did get a sense of the value of trust and the impacts of breaking it. Hope you liked the board.
Hi Ken,
Thanks for your comment.
Know you didn't say that, though I think that the way your group played it boiled down to the same thing.
The main take-away that I got from your piece (which was great) was that you can play it on the trust level - if there was a promise it was stuck to, if the3re was n promise then that was obvious too.
Best wishes,
Keith
