Anybody ever been here?

It's a turn-based online multiplayer version of Risk. A colleague turned me on to it earlier this week and now I'm addicted.

I never played Risk, so I'm still learning. If anybody wants to play, post your email address (or PM me) and I'll refer you. (I'll be entered in a drawing for a 1-year premium membership).

I might have to play. And how can you never have played Risk? I had the ole Risk computer game and used to play it hours on end.

I am notoriously averse to games that appear to have many rules. I'm gradually overcoming that.

That reminds me, I have to install Agression (risk clone) on my treo.

There's an open source Risk clone called TEG but it's for linux. You can run the java version on Windows but you have to run both server and client (not hard to do really). It seems to support multi-player too.

If you ever considered yourself a fan of Risk, you had to have played the PC game roll

Honestly it wasn't that bad. There's a glitch in the game that randomly spawned hundreds of opposing troops at some point in the game. Sometimes it didn't happen and that's when it was really fun. The battle scenes were cool too.

Yes it was a pretty cool game, and the battle scenes were exeptional for the time, never got the glitch though.....

The glitch was the reason I stopped playing. It sucked that you'd have like 10 at the most in each spot then a force of 300 spawns out of nowhere and wipes you out. For some reason that force only did Assault-in-Centre so after taking over a few spots it would finally lose to Defensive Position.

I can only take all of your musings about some glitchy old version of the game to mean that none of you has the balls to play against me.

Well if I wasn't at work, I would make you swallow your words. But alas, I am in the working enviroment so your challenge will have to wait.

I've already started playing, the problem is people play so damn slow. This person is on their 5th minute of their turn and it's only the first round.

Um, no, try sitting around a table with two risk boards because you had too many guys to play just one board; yeah it's tough to take over Madagascar twice.

Eh, i dont like waiting forever in between turns. That's like playing chess with someone who takes 20 mins to decide between [ba3223fb1c4]every single[/ba3223fb1c4] move. x
