I've never been a fan of A&A. Too many balance issues in my opinion.
Never played A&A (I know, I know), but this is funny to me. Diplomacy has huge balance issues (borne out statistically, different countries have different win percentages). Unless of course you're talking about "Five Italies".

It's a cooperative boardgame, which is pretty fun and different.
I've played it once, didn't really like it. Without competition (direct or indirect) it's basically just a giant game of solitaire. You can play an entire game just being told what to do by the other players.
