I've always wanted to play Diplomacy.

Isn't that a military game?   Tongue



Dunno WHAT to classify it as. It's so wrong as any kind of simulation that I can't tell
what it's meant to represent. I guess the terms 'armies' and 'fleets' might be a clue though.

From what I can tell, its a negotiation game at heart. Which I think would fall into the political category.

But that's the mechanism. I wouldn't say all negotiation based games are about politics.

Think about a price-fixing game.

True. Or even Settlers of Catan.

Does Negotiation mechanism + Military setting = political?
