    Just a thought. Would anyone be interested in a game of risk or a tournament featuring teams of 2 or 3 players (if we get enough)?

    If you dont know risk is basically a turn based online game where your armies attempt to take over the world (google it for more info).

    Would have significantly long turn times to ensure people have long enough to play (24 or 48 hours im thinking)


    P.s. yes, this was inspired by ddds thread. If it clashes in anyway then this gets binned and his gets priority. Although i dont think thats too likely

    Starcraft 2 RTS speed risk takes 2 hours, real board game risk takes 4 hours with 3+ players. Imagine if single turns took ages. Would rather play a political forum board game, but the only person related to empires who knows how to GM one of those has schizophrenia.

    not really since that would be the maximum amount of time itd take. Would probably be over in 3 or 4 days all being well (just login and check when it suits basically)

    Grant--speed risk (3 min turns) is usually over in around 20 mins, ~7 turns. So thats an approximate maximum of 7 days. again logging in whenever suits

    Everytime we played Risk in my household we spent the entire team cursing at each other and being loudly obnoxoius.

    Me and my dad just hated each other when it came to risk.

    It would be awesome, but take at least a week. So maybe.

    Why not just tell Empty to hurry the fuck up and play infiltration?
