RISK 'World Conquest Game'

Thanks Armin

 

So it's not a board game too?

 

Pity ... looks (from the screen-shots) it would make a great board game.

 

So you'd be playing an on-line networked game then ?

I think Risk would make an excellent computer game if it was ever made. You could either play on the internet or over a network

Urm... nope to the board game EU2 sessions can already take quite a few days, now imagine how long it would take to play it as board game.

 

Yes, optimally it would be played within a LAN. I never played it online against others. Just against comps and on a LAN against human opponents. Just haul your comp over to someone's place to play. I have two extra comps at my house which should be able to handle EU2, so could probably accomodate two guests.

Risk already has been made a computer game, several times over in fact. The latest PC game version was called "Risk II", it had a few optional variants you could play as well, and still should be in bargain areas in your local GAME store. Or sold for peanuts online.
