Grab your top hat, polish your monocle, and prepare to stab your closest allies right in the back (politely, of course). Diplomacy: Era of Empire takes the classic backroom deals and whispered betrayals of Diplomacy and drops them into the 19th century, when empires carved up the globe and everyone was one bad handshake away from war. No dice, no luck—just sharp negotiation, clever alliances, and the occasional double-cross as you compete for dominance across Asia and beyond. Whether you’re a seasoned diplomat or brand new to the dark arts of negotiation, this stand-alone edition is ready to test your charm and treachery.
