I won due to persistence.

Yes. Persistence. Don't even try to deny it. :cheese:

Can someone explain the rules in short ? Since this looks like something I should try.

It's based on a game called Risk. Risk isn't something you can pick up quickly. I've looked at it before, and it seems far too complicated and fast-paced. Then again, I really only looked at one computer version.

Who knows though? You're an NT, maybe it won't be a problem for you.

Well, I know how to play risk so I don't see the problem.

I am afraid that I would not get far with this approach. (it is too direct)

Well... I just meant you should try to win. Not necessarily that you should take a direct approach. ;)

I rarely find the direct approach advantageous myself in the games I play with people, if you know what I mean.

If someone were to explain the basic rules to me, I could try.

How could I possibly decline? :cheese:

Let's say I have a name within the World Diplomacy hobby, mostly in Face to Face tournaments (remember: I'm an extrovert)...

During tournaments, we usually play C-diplo. That's far more interesting than classic American games where indeed, people can win or obtain a draw only because they are indefinitely persistent and patient, not because they are talented.

Diplomatic Corps: C-Diplo

And besides, in tournaments, an outright solo victory is a very rare occurence.
