not necessary - it’s your game, your choice. I was just sayin’
not like it matters, since we can create a hundred new games if we want 
I don’t like either of reinforcement methods that only allow one move, period. Each army should be mobile, dammit.
Oh, I’m in for Sijinn’s new game. I’ll probably get Asia.
I’m in too.
Can anyone explain the difference between chained and adjacent fortification to me?
Am I right in thinking-
Adjacent: fortifying once from territories right next to each other.
Chained: fortifying once from territories linked by your other territories.
I love unlimited but I play using adjacent (I think), IRL.
you are right, exclamation!.
that’s correct - but each of those choices allow only one fortification move per turn. Only unlimited is realistic from a strategic POV
Madd Maxx- can you come along and end my misery in the Doper game, so that I can play in the next one?
I kinda wish there was a surrender option…
Thanks for clearing that up guys.
RoOsh, if you win the game now you’ll be a Risk legend. Think of the glory!!! At least I can console myself with coming third, Madd Maxx blew us all away.
You’re bridgettbridgett? I never woulda put the two together…
Yes, I’m bridgetbridget. Why is that a suprise?!
Exclamation! makes me think of a guy. And I figured bb was probably Bridgetbridget here on the dope as well. I tend to use only one screen name for things myself.
I’m in. I’m a glutton for punishment. I figure I can only improve on my current SDMB game standing.
How often do I need to be able to check these to avoid driving people up the wall? This summer, I may not be able to check more than once a day or so.
I usually check it around 2-3x a Day. Noon and Night @ 12am with maybe a chance of 1 more time in between.
I’m in. Kudos on choosing the “flat rate” option- I hate how Risk games all end up determined entirely by who can turn in the high-value sets.
I’m completely disorganised and fickle, so I’ve basically got a different username for every site I sign up for.
/in and started
Everybody: you don’t need to check at all. Install Tell Me When and let it tell you automatically when you a game that is ready for you to play.
best part about this game is that you can take your own sweet time to take turns. imo once a day is more than enough, people only comment if you miss turns consistently.
ya i always choose ‘flat rate’. ‘escalating’ is only fun if you get to be the one starting a chain. i tried ‘no cards’ once, won’t be trying it again.
I don’t mind no cards on occasion, but you have to avoid it on some maps. I played a no cards game in the dungeon map. What a nightmare, all those one ways doors and large “continents” the game dragged on for some horrendous number of turns. I ended up suiciding myself :mad:
