So, did Joe decide to cap Kansas?  Please tell me no.  I'm looking forward to the coming "49 states vs. Kansas" battle royale.

[Joe Republic]

So, did Joe decide to cap Kansas?  Please tell me no.  I'm looking forward to the coming "49 states vs. Kansas" battle royale.

I've decided against it, for this game at least.  In fact, after this game is over, I'm going to start an open discussion on things that could be amended/improved etc.

[The Man From G.O.P.]

It's difficult to decide what to do, keeping Josh viable seems like the best idea, so attack TN from GA, split the remainder 50/50, with any odd number putting emphasis on TN. End Turn

Can the game be won without Kansas?

[Joe Republic]

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.
