Risk Domination IX [Round 4: Jas]

[Joe Republic]

This feels weird.  Kind of like a cab driver sitting in the back seat while a passenger drives. 

[Joe Republic]

Wait, so how does this game work exactly?  Can I put reinforcements in any state, or does it have to be my own?  Could I attack from, say, Massachusetts to Florida?

[Joe Republic]

Okay, I've glanced through some of the previous games and I think I have a basic understanding of the rules now, so...

All reinforcements to MA.

Attack ME to NH to VT, do or die.
Attack MA to RI to CT, do or die.

Then await further orders.

[Joe Republic]

Good.  Okay, now attack CT to NY for as long as I can do so with 3 dice.  If I take it, move everybody there and then tactical move everybody in VT to NY and end turn.

If forced to retreat, attack VT to NY as long as I have 3 dice.  If I take it, move whoever's left in CT to NY and end turn.

If that fails, await further orders.

Thanks.

[Joe Republic]

Eeeh, you kind of get into a routine after a while, and I still found it more enjoyable than a chore.  Otherwise I wouldn't have run so many games for so long.

Anyway, you don't have to completely mimic the template if you don't want to.  Do it whichever way you find easiest.

[Joe Republic]

It doesn't matter given how it turned out, but I said to attack from CT to NY before attacking VT to NY. 

[Joe Republic]

Game rules:

If you say that your attack order is to "do or die", then there will be no retreat and the maximum number of battalions will be left in the conquered state.

[Joe Republic]

All 6 to NY.

Attack NY-PA until I take it, and leave 7 behind in NY.

Await further orders.

Thanks.

[Joe Republic]

Hmm, that'll do for now.  End turn.

Thanks.

[Joe Republic]

^ No objection from me.


All in NY

Attack NY to NJ do or die, but leave 3 in NY.

Thanks

[Joe Republic]

Tactical move 4 from NJ to PA and end turn.

Thanks.

You must be logged in to read this quote.

6/3=2, not 3

You've never played RISK before, have you? 

A player always a minimum of 3 reinforcements for their number of states, whether they would be mathematically entitled to them or not.

[Joe Republic]

First, these:

      

So that's 16 reinforcements, plus 2 in CT.  Please deploy 5 in PA, 8 in NJ and 3 in ND.

Attack NJ - DE - MD all in.

Await further orders after that.  Thanks. 

[Joe Republic]

Ugh, thanks a lot, DeLAMEware.  Why is it that states that you're only conquering because you're just passing through to get somewhere else are always the ones that put up the most fight?

Anyway, move 9 from PA to MD and end turn.  Thanks, Bay-Kizzle.
