Playing Risk is a lot of fun but it isn't the same as real life. It is about as close as playing monopoly is to becoming the next Donald Trump. Try studying world politics, amassing a large army, and then give it up because it isn't going to happen.

Its a start but with all the new technology in the world you might as well be conquering the past.

It is indeed, it is essential to understand the importance of holding alaska t prevent invasion from Siberia and that most oceans are uncrossable.
Also risk correctly shows that Australasia is best ignored.

George W seems to think so. We played once at Christmas. Furthest he got was Iceland.

I hate Risk. I always lose and it makes me feel stupid. And I sometimes eat the pieces - can I be in your army?
