LEPANTO Opening for Italy in DIPLOMACY Board Game / Interview With Edi Birsan
One of the classic Diplomacy openings, the LEPANTO, is designed to join Italy and Austria against Turkey to land a decisive attack on the Turkish mainland. Today we’re talking with Edi Birsan, who created this maneuver and completely changed the Diplomacy meta with his many contributions to this hobby. We're going to look at the History of the Battle of Lepanto, how Edi came up with the maneuver, how to execute it, how to counter it, and other higher level strategy once you use it. We'll also look at variants such as the Key Lepanto, the Tyrolian Lepanto, the Swiss Lepanto, and the Blue Water Lepanto.
