- YOUNGSTOWN (Judge version)
-
- (1) JOSH SMITH (1992)
-
- The popular Youngstown variant altered the basic Diplomacy game in a number
- of signifcant ways. It introduced Off Board boxes, allowing a form of wrap-
- around movement from one edge of the board to the other. It redrew the
- European map to allow Germany, Austria, and Turkey to start with four units
- each, and created several additional neutral centers in Europe. It gave
- England and France home supply centers in Asia, and Italy a home center in
- Africa. It added several islands, which bordered only sea spaces. It made
- the map non-planar in the African Off Board and the Suez region. It added
- three players to the original seven, but more than doubled the number of
- supply centers on the board. The rules and a postscript map can be
- downloaded from any of the on-line Judges.
