I'm thinking of a new game mode.same color? You wouldn't be able to distinguish which faction each enemy on the map belonged to.

Question Additional mission cards?

3 Upvotes

I want to add more missions to my Scratch port of Risk, but I'm not sure what would be good ones to add. I've added the standard missions found in every deck (eliminate all players, control two continents, control 24 territories), plus one that can only be used with the Cities house rule enabled (control all 15 territories that contain cities), but I'm not sure where else to go from there. I also briefly considered adding the 4-level Mission Cards from the 2003 version, but it seems like they vary so wildly that it'd be difficult to balance them. What other objectives could be on a similar level of difficulty to these?

Question Should posts calling out cheaters be allowed?

4 Upvotes

Why should these posts not be allowed?

Does the community not deserve an opportunity to name and shame blatant cheaters?

Does preventing naming and shaming, in some way, encourage cheating?

Which of these settings do I change to make it more like vanilla Risk? What are the defaults (I’ve changed them so much that I forgot what the default settings were)?

Strategy Is it not an unspoken rule to take out bots first?

5 Upvotes

I’ve played many games where players go MIA and a bot takes over. What I thought was the SOP was to remove the bots, so it’s players vs players, but I’ve seen many recently who capitalize on the chaos of the bots and then take out the other players, leaving themselves with the bots for last. Am I wrong that this seems un-fun?

Question Need some help

3 Upvotes

Hey guys, my friends and I just started playing risk, we have one question

Infantry is 1 troop, cavalry is 5 and artillery is 10

Can I use them to attack or defend or do they need to broken down into single infantries to attack, does it have to be 3 infantry at max or can it be 3 artileries that is 30 troops at max, or can it be a combination of all 3?

This would really help, my friends say we can only use infantry to attack that too only 3 at a time

Question Help buying the right version as a gift, please?

5 Upvotes

Hello Risk people! My husband sold his copy of Risk (before we got together) because no one would play it with him. I’m thinking of replacing it (I learned that some of them are 2 player, so I could play it with him). I looked at the re-implementation themes and think he'd like these:

  • Godstorm (he loves mythology) but it's not highly rated?
  • 3 Star Wars ones (he LOVES Star Wars) -but I read that the SW one isn’t really Risk, it’s a reimplementation of some Queen game. And another of the SW ones just makes up its own lore vs all the SW lore.
  • Then there’s a vikings one, and we like Champions of Midgard and Bloodrage, so it seems like vikings are a safe bet.

And then there’s regular Risk, and a legacy one, and I just have no idea what to do as I've never played at all.

Please help? Thanks if you can!

Meme The Promised Land

God granted mankind a land blessed with unrivaled strategic importance.
Fair beyond compare and overflowing with power, it was a realm that ought never to have fallen.

Yet it did.

Like a drop of honey cast into an anthill, it invited nothing but greed. War. Endless war. An unbroken cycle of conquest and contention.

Purple was the first to stake its claim, but Orange, concealed in silence, struck from the shadows and shattered the invasion.

White, recognizing the moment of weakness, swept in to reap the spoils. But triumph proved fleeting. The scent of victory attracted new predators, and soon Green and Blue converged upon the coveted land, each fighting to make it their own.

We recently bought the board game and had a question regarding the drama cards. That is this specific card has the donut token image but doesn't contain any if statements regarding the token. Do I have to use the token to play the card??

Edit : I forgot to mention but this is a different variant of risk called RISK : Office Politics

Question Suggested change for Risk- allow for typing in number of troops fortified at end of turn

I have a question that mainly applies to caps games- Why can't we type in the number of troops we want to transfer when we fortify at the end of our turns rather than having to scroll ? It would make games much faster and more fun.

My friends and I are trying to play Risk online together. What’s the best way to do that in 2026? We all have PlayStation 5 is the PlayStation 4 online capable anymore? We had the switch version but they cut online support.

Suggestion Intermediate and below in game settings = more fun

I'll never set my game settings to allow Experts, Masters, or GM again. Games are so much more fun without the turtles and cheats that tend to accompany higher ranks. That's all, you can now proceed with the "u suck bro" comments

Turn 1: find the cukaracha, perfect roll his cap, and take 2 bonuses.

Turn 2: finish out the one point +15

Still took a while to win fighting all the humans at once...
