I like your settings better.

You get to pick your starting territories in prioority order

You get to place your starting armies where you want them.

Everybody does this at the same time, so it doesn't take much time.

I think you thinking of the original, board-game method. This is a hybrid one, though I am definitely up for an old-style game, too.

It's a glitch and a feature. You don't have to all be present to play a game. There are definitely faster interfaces for instant games, but it is nice to just go to a website and make a few moves at work in long games.

The better question is why did Crveballin decided to end both his chances and probably mine with a suicide run when there was plenty of play in the game.

I blew my plan, I wanted to take you out with your set of cards. If it had worked it would have been all over for everyone.

How can you call anybody else's play lame? You literally just sat in Australia without attacking outwards the whole game. You should have invaded China ages ago.

The guys in my game were calling me a fish, and telling me I was too slow.

I finished 4th.

To my fellow RISK players,

I played my first game of RISK in about 13 years last night. That was what it took for me to remember how to play. Having re-learned the rules, I played my second game tonight and crushed my opponents, steamrolling to victory. I would like to thank everyone for trying in vain to battle me - it was fun. With this victory, I will once again retire from the RISK arena, stepping away from RISK while at the top of my game.

Good luck to you all,
El Diablo (champion)

Questionable start, but I ended up winning. Not sure if I played well or just got lucky.

AC,

Had Dynasty not had a set after curveballin's failed attack, the game would have been over right then. Since he got lucky and matched his cards, it took me a little longer to prevail.

Nice playing with you,

PS: Curve, the game ended a few minutes after I conquered you.

You never would have won in not for my suicide run in Europe leaving a bunch of 1's for you to gobble up and take my 3 cards.

How the hell did Dynasty blow that game?

[/ QUOTE ]

You would have had a really tough time winning if my 13 attacker had beaten Alobar's 6 in Europe before he decided to go through his rampage in the Americas crippling bugstud. If I roll well there you would have had a really tough time getting me out of Asia.

Not to mention your 17 attacking my 14 and ending up with 9 armies after conquering all of indonesia.

It wasnt Dynasty that blew the game. I tried to take him out on one turn but missed all but one country. He had 4 cards at the time (I think). It was a strategic attempt at taking out one of the strongest players while drawing a thin line of sucess/failure.

I get his cards I win the game easily.

I would also like to point out that, in that game, I single-handedly eliminated all opposition.

When the card excahgnes got big, Crveballin launched a all-out attack against my forces. It reduced me to just one country and Crveballin to a bunch of 1 army countries. That allowed El Diablo to take advantage and take the America's with no significan resistance.

Even though I didnt win, I made it a lot more interesting. I was hoping bugstud would have gone after Dominator in Asia. That was the point of taking his last satellite country out. I had some good strategy but my execution was terrible.

This is a silly thread. Like other games, both luck and which players go after which makes a huge difference. We might as well declare whether you are a winning p**** player or not based on one randomly dealt hand.

You are wrong. Initial placement of countries helps, but in the end, negotiation and basic strategy play a huge roll.

In one game, luck is a huge factor. As for negotiation, I used to play with a group where most of us targeted the same few players for early elimination every time. Ganging up on people is perfectly legitimate, but to suggest that it makes you more "skilled" at the game is a joke.
