It's a classic strategy board game where the goal is to conquer the world. A great game that I spent a lot of time on when I was younger.

A fun game in which the goal is to control the world. There are 42 territories on 6 continents. Troops are placed on these territories and battles are fought with dice. Win more territories and get more troops. Basic Risk is fun and you will never get tired of it. Newer versions are coming out all the time. Star Wars, Pirates of the Caribbean, Transformers.

ok 1st, muska, that is stratego u are thinking of.
Risk is a 2-6 player game. There are 42 territories spread of 6 continents. Each continent conquered gains addition armies in addition to the back-ups you get normally. You can spin 1 less dies that the people on your country, up to 3. The defender can defend w/ 2. The 2 highest pairs are taken. You can only attack connecting territories......
Hope this helps!

It's a military based board game, my husband plays it with the kids, the board is a map and the players try to take over eachother's countries. You can find the rules on google.com

Its a game where you line your pieces up on a board across from one another like chess. In chess, your opponent can see the strength of your piece before it attacts, but in Risk you do not know how powerful the other piece is. If the other piece is more powerful than yours, then you lose that piece. One of your pieces is a flag and the first person to capture the opponets flag wins.
