Risk, Game 1 - the silent speaker wins

Ukraine only has one army.

Also, you (and anyone making a move in the future) needs to check the results after you post, and if you capture a territory you need to state how many armies end up in each. Basically, completing your whole turn in one go is the only way this is going to work. Make sure you know everything you need to do and do it all.

[Save The Dragons]

Well, it was very stupid of me to roll two dice with one defender. If you wish me to redo that, I will, but for now I'll just move on.

I beat the one and move 5 into Ukraine, keeping 3 in Scandinavia.

I attack Great Britain from Northern Europe.

Ah, caught you in the middle of posting.

Yeah, I suppose for the sake of speed, you can just roll 3 and 2 every time, and if the defender gets down to 1, just take the first die. Do specify before you roll if you want to stop attacking if you get down to a certain point.

[Save The Dragons]

First roll: Raj loses two
Second roll: I lose two
Third roll: I lose two

Now what happens? My rolls become irrelivent because I rolled three. And do you want me to redo Ukraine?

[Save The Dragons]

Well, I put a lot of thought into it, and I've decided I'm going to go for it, because I didn't specify that I wasn't going to.

Ouch. Ok, I got one guy on Neurope while Raj has 2 on whatever.

[Save The Dragons]

We both lose one.

That leaves 2 in Ukraine and 2 in So Europe.

I move 3 from N Africa into So Europe.

I end my turn. Risk card!

[WindSlicer]

Just a quick question.

Do we use the "Preview' button on the posts to figure out how many attacks we need to continue to capture the territory? Because then we'd end up having way too many posts right? Just want to make sure.

[the silent speaker]

Quick question -- what's the code for dice rolls? I've never used that.

[CoolBot]

Code: Select all

[dice]2d5[/dice]

will get you

Original Roll String: 2d5

2 5-Sided Dice: (4, 3) = 7

[mith]

StD, you have to move 3 armies to Southern Europe because you rolled 3 dice.

Clarification: Roll 3 and 2 for every attack. If you want to roll a different number of dice at a particular point in your attack (for example, when the defender is down to 1), you need to say that beforehand

I've gone ahead and updated the map. StD, if you'd like to adjust your free move, you can do so during the next two turns, but not after that.

WindSlicer, you're up.

Previewing will not work for dice rolls. If you're unsure how long you want to attack, you can always just do one roll per post. Otherwise, post any conditions you have for stopping or changing the number of dice.

[Save The Dragons]

My bad...I'll just keep it as is.

[WindSlicer]

Oook. Let's cross my fingers and hope I don't screw up too badly.

My turn is finished (32 minutes O.o). Card please.

[bigbenwd]

thanks for not going for N.America, that was helpful

[WindSlicer]

Yeah that was my first game plan, and then I reasoned it out, and it came down to the fact that if I had like 2 or 3 more armies, I would have And also I didn't want to risk dying during the first round, heh.

Btw, why did STD get to place 3 armies at the start of his turn?

[bigbenwd]

we all do, you get your #of terretoris/3 extra armies at the beginning of each turn rounded down with a minimum of 3.

[WindSlicer]

Oh I didn't see the "minimum of 3"... darn I only placed 2 on the start of my turn.

Mith, I would have placed the 3rd army in Siberia, so should I reroll some of those or can I just make it so Japan now has 3 armies?

[mith]

You can just place it in Japan. You rolled with less dice than you had to, that's all.

I'll update the map tonight.

[WindSlicer]

Oh, and after reading over post 41, something is definitely up with this

"BEFORE I END MY TURN I WILL TRANSFER A SET OF ARMIES FROM TWO OF MY TERRITORIES.

Transfer 4 armies from Northwest Territory (5) into Alaska (5). This leaves Alaska with 4 armies and Northwest Territory with 9. "

That statement should read

"BEFORE I END MY TURN I WILL TRANSWER A SET OF ARMIES BETWEEN TWO OF MY TERRITORIES>

Transfer 4 armies from Northwest Territory (5) into Alaska (5). This leaves Alaska with 9 armies and Northwest Territory with 1. "

[Save The Dragons]

We all do? Damn, I thought mith and I had something special going on...

Map updated, it's ben's turn. Sorry about the delay.
