Tables Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 (edited) That's wrong. If there are 3 units in Iceland and they attack Scandinavia which has 1, then it is 3v1. After the battle, one stays back in the country. Not beforehand. If there are 3 units in Iceland and they attack Scandinavia, then the attacker gets to roll 2 dice and the defender 1. It's only if there are 4 or more that the attacker gets to roll 3 dice. Otherwise, if there are 2 units vs. 2, how many dice does the attacker get? If one, then that's inconsistent. If two, then what if the defender kills both? http://www.indepthinfo.com/risk/rules-outline.shtml Attacking: The player then may attack any country adjacent to his own (where he possesses more than one army). He then picks out the number of dice equal to his own attacking armies. (He can't count the army which must remain behind to occupy the territory.) The defender does the same up to two dice, but he may count the army occupying the territory for this purpose.

Tables Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 Which is a poor justification, really. Anyway, check the rules I quoted, then google 'Risk Rules'. I looked at 3 sites towards the top of page 1, all agree that the attacker rolls 1 die less than the people he has in the territory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean that you guys actually had to look up one of the game's basic rules? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tables Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 When someone disputes something, you don't just quote fact, even if you know it. You back it up with reference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zanarkin Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 so um is this still going on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaybee Posted November 23, 2010 Author Share Posted November 23, 2010 Yup. Just that whenever I go to Forum Games, I click straight on Assassin's Guild and ignore everything else. :P Spykor sent 1 unit to Eastern Canada and 2 to Yakutsk. He fell asleep after that. BOARD Slayer, your turn. 3 units. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Spoon Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 You do realize that you absolutely suck at this responsibility thing, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Spoon Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Also, is there any reason you can't just change the colors of the territories so that its easier to tell who owns what at a glance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
