The fish Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 Ok folks, here's the deal: It's Risk, but free and online! It also has the handy addition of maps other than just the classic one. It's approaching Advance Wars levels of addictiveness, and is great fun. Sign up here (it is, of course, totaly free): http://www.conquerclub.com Post your username on it, and I'll play (and, all going to plan, eliminate) you. Mine is willbxtn.

Shorty Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 I thought this thread was going to be about the dangers of fraud on the internet, which was a bit creepy because I just had a big argument with my mum, who was demanding that I was going to lose all my money to conmen because I put my email address on my facebook page. Err, on topic... I never knew how to play Risk. Looks complicated. Can't we play online pictionary instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginger_Chris Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Cheers for the link, Risk is ok, but there's too much luck, I once held france with 2 men against an army of 40. my opponent wasn't chuffed and I lost all confidence in the game because everyone knows the french always retreat.

Haden Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Wow now I know why your called SUPERgrunch! Shall we organise a game maybe in a different thread unless the fish doesn't mind this sabtogae? Diplomacy rocks so so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The fish Posted July 22, 2007 Author Share Posted July 22, 2007 Hmm...I've never ever played Diplomacy, but I'll give it a go at some point. If we play each other, go easy on me. :wink: We should start a Risk game at some point too, the Canada and Europe maps are especially good, as well as the good old Classic.

Haden Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Diplomacy is a really really interesting game one that I love so much as I love 19th century and early 20th diplomatic history as im a geek for taht period lol.

Ginger_Chris Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 we should organise a forum diplomacy game. 7 players will be easy enough to find, only problem is that it usually takes a fair while 3-4 hours. (depending on turn length, but longer is always better, more plotting). I'm free constantly for the next 2 months :P EDIT: I will read above posts eventually.

Ginger_Chris Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 no secret alliances, isn't that like the whole point? or more importantly breaking said secret alliance. There is probably a different website we can use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fresh Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 I don't know the rules, but what the hell. I'd be up for it. Risk (game) Risk is a turn-based game for two to six players, and is played on a board depicting a stylised Napoleonic-era political map of the Earth, divided into forty-two territories, which are grouped into six continents. Players control armies, with which they attempt to capture territories from other players. The goal of the game is to control all the territories—or "conquer the world"—through the elimination of the other players. Using area movement, Risk ignores realistic limitations, such as the vast size of the world, and the logistics of long campaigns. Compared to other military board games, Risk is relatively simple and abstract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
