So we have a few member run projects and games going on at the forums. I thought I would import something from 4chan that might be interesting to try (Don't worry it's safe). I'm starting a game of Risk. And ladies and gentlemen, the world is at large . . . or at stake.

Rules are simple:
You pick a color, name, and a place you want to start. I'll distribute your controlled areas accordingly.
You post your move. Be specific with the direction on your expansion and let me know.
Note: Since I can't go use post count numbers to determine if your move is a dud, I will be consulting a random number generator to decide for me.
A color is completely taken by another force, it is out for good. No revolutions or revivals.
To conquer another nation, corner them so they can't expand further and work your way in. If their is white space on the board, you'll have to take that first.

Most of the other rules, like land bonuses and what not are on the actual map so you can see them there. Ask me if you have any questions, we start the game once 5 people step up. I will be keeping my eye on this thread.

I'll end the game after two to three weeks of game play or four days of inactivity. That way this just doesn't sit here and collect dust (so to speak)



EDIT: One more thing, the reason I'm not posting this in the Games section is because I have a prize in mind. I'll reveal the identity of what this might be once the game starts.

I'll take red and start at the Stone Head islands. I've never seen this map-set before so I apologize in advance if I screw anything up. You can call my army the Sharpyians and we're going to fuck your shit up.

[canas is back]

purple and start in the north west corner,

[Hana-Nezumi]

How often do we get to move? And what function do the land bonuses serve?

[Kisseena]

Well, I've never played this game before, but I can learn right?
I wanna be pink!
I guess I'll start in Jinridge!

[J-Roc]

Yeah these were my two questions as well, Jerp, I've only ever played the original RISK so I'm assuming this is some fancy new version with some fancy new rules?

[JRPomazon]

You tell me what you want to do. I go to the generator and see what number you get. If you get a good one, you can get either a few new territories or much more. Basically, it's matter on waiting on me before you can go again.

As for controlling bonuses, I wasn't able to read up if there were any specifics in mind. But from now on, let's say that if you manage to get a set number of territories in a turn you'll get a few more depending on what bonus you might have at the time. Sound good?

Pretty much the same. Just minus the annoying number crunching in battles. You get the right numbers, you'll be going places.

And your armies' names?

So basically... whoever posts the most when you happen to be online wins? XD

Not exactly. It all depends on what numbers I generate. You might ask to expand one way or another, get crap numbers and get next to nothing. You can post the most and get the least amount of land. I'll be sure that things don't get too stale though, so don't sweat nothing on getting too bored. (But becoming somewhat bored might happen, this is Risk after all.)

Okie dokie then.

I'm just excited to be a ruler! XD

I'm totally dressing up my av for this.

I don't get bored whilst marching towards victory. Ever.

I am so totally pumped!

World domination WOOHOOO!!!!

[J-Roc]

XD I like that new avy, Hana, cute!

I'm now trying to decide if my objective here is to ensure I win or to ensure someone loses... hmmmmmm...

[JRPomazon]

3 Nations have risen to this call of conquest, but two more are required before the balance of this world is tipped. But who knows just how many nations will clash in the wake of war . . .

but to be frank, we might have to wait till tomorrow to see things take off. When people are "awake" and stuff.

Thanks. X3 If I'm gonna take over the world I gotta make sure I look good doing it!

This is going to be fun, because not only do we get to play but we can also taunt and banter and even do some fantasy roleplaying type-shit to compliment the battles.

Jerp, you are totally wrong, this will probably be way more fun then regular RISK and I bet not-a-one of us will get bored.

[JRPomazon]

Kissy, I gave you a random name for the sake of getting this game started.

Which it has.

War descends onto the world. If anyone else wants to jump in, please feel free to so long as there is a place you can claim for yourself (aka white space).



Ladies and gentlemen, the world waits for no one. What are your orders?


EDIT:

Here are how the number generated at random for each of your turns are going to work.

If you get an even number, you'll get 1T (T=Territory)
If you get a number ending in 5 or 0 that is less than 50 you'll get 4T
If you get a number ending in 5 or 0 that is more than 50 you'll get 8T
If you get a straight set (123,456, 789,etc.) or 69() that's 20T
If you get 404 you'll get 37T
Trips get you 42T
Four in a row straight will get you 52T

[Hana-Nezumi]

Take over peninsula, then proceed north.

[wisp]

I want teal, on the southwest corner of Dailmaul. Call me Swisperland.

And I have no idea how to play Risk, so I will watch some other people before I decide what to do. XD

[Ransom]

Green
That island in between Dailmaul's crotch.
PRESTIGE WORLDWIDE

[J-Roc]

I'm assuming you are going to alert us to the result of the roll, and then await our orders, no?

My first order of business will be to take over the rest of this first island of the four Stone Head Islands.

Then I'm going to personally destroy each and every one of you.

[JRPomazon]

The map has been updated:
Hana rolls "6408", gets 1T

EDIT: Sharpy rolls "7111" gets 42T (Holy shit, that was lucky)

[Sir Deimos]

I think I want in on this.

Aspara. Start me on island Ohio.

Uhhh...

Call me The Legion because I'm at work and can't put a lot of time into a better name.

[Ransom]

I'd like to fuck some shit up on the right first.

...And wowser that was a good roll Sharpy. Is there no cap on how many territories we can win in a single roll?

[J-Roc]

Damn, hopefully that roll is par for the course for me .

Still a lot of work to get the rest of that island, but if I control a corner my position will be extremely defensible. Awesome, I'm happy with this. Thanks so much for starting this for us all to enjoy, Jerp!
