Maybe they've increased their marketing a bit. Links in more places etc.

Most people who know me know that I've always been freemium, and that I stopped playing a while ago, while still posting in the community forums. One of the reasons I stopped playing was that the types of games grew distant from the basic game. It was increasingly hard to find a map that followed the basic tactics. And it was increasingly hard to find a set of rules that stuck to the basics.
Most new players here are likely to be confused. Fog of war rules, bombardment, speed games, instant victories? Join the site and you will lose your first game, not because you are bad at Risk, but because you have no idea how to play the map that players on this site created, and you don't know how the rules work.
You will lose points to those people, and your first experience will be a loss in ranking. Not the best introduction.
I am of the opposite opinion. Sticking to Risk is IMHO a big mistake. What is so different between Risk and the other strategy wargames? I would advertise to all strategy players, not only to Risk lovers.
About the different settings, if number of players was high enough, you would always find a game with the settings you like. But in fact there are not so many settings at it seems. Yes, there are many choices to make, but they don't lead to significatively different games. I bet many people leave the site when they learn that there is no limit to how far troops can move in one turn.

The question is will the stay or did they just drop by to see what's new and then leave?

For example: DISADVANTAGED to the start of every single game! Dice rolls are sicker than ever!
Cash in on cards is always the maximum, auto position? HA! totally controlled and is a joke!
All opponents gain the advantage at start on at first roll, since I go 2nd 99% of the time.
Conqueer Club makes sure that specific players NEVER get ahead!

you can develope as many of those maps as you want, they are like vermin and have set about the rot for cc.
i came here to play risk, not attack lots of neutrals. whoever gets the best dice early on wins, simple as that! you will never have any of those maps as an actual board game. you may however send your children to england to beg.
be proud of yourself
