Diplomacy World is a quarterly publication fanzine about the play of the board game Diplomacy. It was first published in 1973 starting with issue #1 of DW which was edited by Walter W. Buchanan and published in January 1974. All of the back issue of DW are available on the DW website. DW is considered the flagship zine of the Diplomacy hobby.[1]
It was an extension of Buchanan's Hoosier Archives which have been archived (along with many other Diplomacy zines or Dipzines) in the popular culture section of the Bowling Green State University by Jamie McQuinn.[2][3]
DW is the oldest continuously published commentary (e.g. non-playing) Diplomacy zine. Currently, it has over 150 issues published and is published quarterly online on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1. The current managing editor is Doug Kent with recent death of former editor and co-editor Jim Burgess.[4]
After DW issue #96 the zine is only published on the web and is no longer a postal zine.[5][6]
