Hundred Variant - Conflict in the Year 1425 AD.

Created by: [[Andy Schwarz]] and [[Vincent Mous]]

1) The rules of "standard" Diplomacy ¨ are valid, unless
specifically replaced or amended by these rules

2) The standard map is replaced by the "Hundred" variant map.
Northumbria has 2 coasts, West and East. Aragon has 2 coasts, North
and South. Castile is not divided into coasts, so fleets entering
Castile from Biscay can then proceed to the Mediterranean and vice
versa.

3) All references in the "standard" rules to specific powers,
provinces, locations, and seasons do not apply to "Hundred".

4) The game begins in 1425. Each turn represents 5 "real time"
years, and has a movement phase followed by a retreat phase.
Alternating turns will have an adjustment phase (after retreats if
required), the first being in 1430.

5) There are 17 supply centers on the board. The winner is the
power which holds 9 or more supply centers during an adjustment
phase.

6) There are three great powers. The starting units are as follows:

BURGUNDY
*Army Dijon
*Army Luxembourg
*Army Flanders
*Fleet Holland

ENGLAND
*Army Calais
*Army Guyenne
*Army Normandy
*Fleet London
*Fleet Devon (see 6d)

FRANCE
*Army Dauphine
*Army Orleanais
*Army Paris
*Army Toulouse
*Army Provence (see 6a-c)

6a) To represent the reliance on underpaid mercenary units, France
begins the game with more units than it can afford. The army in
Provence is considered a mercenary unit, and as Provence does not
start in a Supply Center, France must capture at least one Supply
Center in 1425 to maintain all 5 units. Should France fail to
capture a Supply Center, it will be forced to remove one unit,
however, it need not be the actual unit that starts in Provence.
Instead, if it wishes, the French ruler may discharge other troops
and keep the Provincial unit in his service.

6b) Other than this first year of no support, the unit in Provence
is identical to all other French units, and its entry into conflict
is at equal strength with all other units. Even in 1425, the unit
moves and supports at full strength.

6c) Provence is NOT a Supply Center and no units may be built there,
nor does occupation of Provence provide any support for any units.

6d) Variant: The English player may choose to start his Fleet Devon
as Fleet English Channel. This gives England more striking power
early in the game. The decision to use this optional rule should be
made prior to assigning powers to players. Obviously, the English
Channel is not a supply center and no future English units can be
built there, nor does occupation of the English Channel provide any
support for any units.

7) A power may build in any vacant supply center it owns during an
adjustment phase: there are no permanent "home centers". For
example, France may build in London if it is vacant, and France owns
it and is eligible for a build.

8) Units (armies and fleets) may move or give support from London to
Calais or vice versa regardless of the presence of a fleet in the
Strait of Dover.
