I am on the same problem. I have 3 aliens, and only about 9 territories in this game.

I repeat, do I just download that bug fix verion thiny on page 1?

Eeeehm, some guy ripped on me for not having BOB, but I have NO clue what to download and install.

Well ofcourse I can't xD But anyway, I spent my last turn reclaiming central US for obvious reasons, (I only got 3 armies that turn)

This game right here

Is driving me nuts, we've been going round about 8 times already, is there any suggestion you might make that I can break this endless circle of repetition.

Care to explain why? because I don't really see the point.

My last turn was mostly just about fortifying my borders and doing 1 outward attack.

I have taken the turn to do the usual thing, take Central US, I know I'm not defended that well, but I do think I have a shot at making the bonus so I can defend myself a bit better, I'm going to have a look at the map and it's players before I figure out what to do with my next turn.

I do have to mention that I AM afraid of Skippy at the moment, he's the only one who can probably break my right at this time, though it will go at the cost of all the units he gets next turn, but he can do it on either side of my 'perimiter' I do think that though I'm most vulnerable on the Tropics ...

After starting my turn I realised I could boldly take Mexico, that was a mistake, I should've taken as much force as possible into Arizona or California to break Kratos's bonus, instead I did take mexico but left myself with only a handful armies between kratos and my certain doom xD

I am the last to take a full bonus area, the tropics. And I saw every one of us has precicely 1 area. Let's get ready to rumbleeeeee

just building a force and getting ready for an attack

I got out of there just in time, if there's something left of the north ( I was guessing kratos to go north.) I'll attack yellow with it. In the south, there is where my troops belong, and so I've set up a nice though relatively weak ...

Ok I have attacked once more in the south, taken 1 territory. I have kept my units on california where they are, Next turn I'm moving out, either on yellow or back south.

Aaaand, 2 turns later Yellow's got himself the arctic circle.

You shouldn't be, I'm not anything near a threat. My territories are scattered, my forces divided(Going for both south and west may be a very bad idea)

Anyway, I spent my turn putting 2 armies on the 5 of california and 2 on panama, taking over nicaragua. I hate the dice gods, (enemy had 1 army ...

Which means I'm in trouble.

*Starts thinking on what to do next*

Ok, I used my first turn to 'fortify' my hold on the tropics and the west as stated in the game chat. I don't really see much other options. Well I do but I have to make a descision or be divided before the battle. And being divided=being conquered

Yeah, I once played my brother in a real game and luck gave me North America's territories all but Greenland and Alberta.

I just joined. Comon people show interest it'll help all those who play.

Ok, first suggestion rejected,
New suggestion was to match Eltherion's An option to play a game with less Missing Turn time, If people join they'd know they'd have to check back every 12 hours at least instead of 24.

The idea is to make the 2nd and 3rd consecutive missed turn take less than 24 hours each.
I suggest 12 hours each instead of the full 24.
Players waiting to continue a game without waiting 2 more 24 hour days after someone didn't take his/her turn after the first. If someone notices he/she missed ...

Hi - I loved RISK as a kid - though i wasn't that great a player even then! Thats 30 years ago... and I am now finding out, playing online for the firstg time, just how little I know --- so although i know my way round the "classic" world, I have no clue about the other boards and could fairly call ...

I'd like there to be more of those maps, especially since theres an 8 player and 4v4 option on the to do list. And I feel that maps the size of 2.1 are better to do such games.

No you can't yet.

Just post FAQ nr. 4 next time.

I am definitely someone who needs a mentor. I am ok at the game, and I found my way around the site pretty fast and easily. But I am not winning games, in fact, I've had it more than once now that I was doing ok, getting some bonusses, the 2 northern regions of Middle earth for example. Or a nice ...
