RISK Domination VI: Finished!

Ahem...I kind of wonder where those 3 armies I put in California went...

You used them to attack Sonora, remember?

Ok then, that went pretty well, we will see if it's enough.

So attack from NY, to NJ and DE, if I knock MM out, please update me on what I've plundered if anything, then I will need to ask for clarification on something.

You can only turn in cards when your next move begins. If that was what you wanted to ask.

I disagree, We will have to wait for word from Joe on this, I have played both ways, some people insist that whenever you have a certain number of cards, you must trade them in ASAP, and we're using a mix of rules, so I'm not sure what's what at the moment.

I know that, that's why I told you what the rule is here. Sorry for not making that clearer.

[minionofmidas]

And I give up.

I hate to have to clarify this, but by this do you mean to end your turn after the attacks? 

I don't think it does.

Can the game be won without Kansas?

Can the game be won without Kansas?

Good question, and I have given it some thought.  Here's what the opening section of the 'Rules' in the first post have to say:

Welcome to a new game of 'RISK Domination'!  Six generals will battle it out to defeat their opponents and conquer the entire United States; using strategy, smarts, brute strength, and a healthy dose of 'risk'.

Therefore, I would say that the winner must have defeated all five rivals and conquered all fifty states.  Technically the Neutrals count as an opponent as well, I guess.

And once someone takes over the board they will kill KS

No. You overlooked the fine print. To win the game you have to defeat all five rivals and conquer all fifty states, but the game ends when you defeat the last rival. So if you've conquered 49 states while Kansas is still around, the game is over and nobody's won.

That's the rule I'd use to prevent a second Kansas, anyways.

Oh come on, TN. If you don't want to witness Gustaf's impending coronation, resign from this game and find yourself a replacement.

Florida invades Alabama (TN2024) with 10 battalions available to attack, while 1 battalion will defend.

Josh22 [10] rolls 3 dice: 6 5 5
TN2024 [1] rolls 1 die: 5
Josh22 loses 1 battalion

Ahhem.

Ah, those final pointless valiant deeds. Kudos to Tennessee and Delaware.
