    Hello all,

    Anyone fancy playing an online game of Risk? Its turn based so can schedule the rounds to suit!

    Might help anyone looking to keep busy between now and the next game!

    This is off forum, so apologies if i shouldnt be posting the invitation here.

    Actually, you could very easily play this on the forum. Would just involve lots of screenshots. If anyone would be up for that let me know!

    Cool!

    If you go and create an account, ill setup a game. You can play multiple games at once, so if more wanna play, we can create another game.

    Let me know your Username by PM :)

    Regarding those pesky emails - ive been registered with them since college, but gmail always hides the emails from them. Not in my inbox, not in spam.

    So if you are waiting on an email, best to put in a search in case it was put somewhere hidden.

    I'll give it a go

    Ok will set up a 4 way game to get us going. Can create another game involving QB later as well!

    Do you need to be playing on laptop or pc? I’m on phone and started a bot game but all I’m doing is pressing the assault, end, reinforcements buttons randomly till it tells me my turns over.

    I can’t see a map???


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    Never tried on mobile. Will check now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    Just tried there. Map is up the top of the game page. It isnt responsive, so the page looks a little screwy, but id say you need to let it load fully before you press the action buttons?


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    Okay, registered under 'quickbeam'.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    Cant add people to games who have 0 games played, so need you to play a game against a bot or randomer.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    Have no idea what I'm doing, but I joined a game and made some random moves. Is this enough to have 1 game played and be added?

    I can’t find how to find people. Think I need to use laptop too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    You go into search for games and there is a username field in there


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    Ok I can and have added strawbs and qb to a game. If anyone else wants to play, you need to create an account and join a random game, and then I can add you in to our games.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,397 ✭✭✭✭Digital Solitude


    I'm gonna drop out of this lads, pain on mobile and I don't use desktop enough to commit to this.

    I do have a new plan though


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    I haven't even figured out how to join a game, never mind play it and I don't really have the time to figure it out unless it had come easy, so will have to drop out too, soz! :(

    You’ll be grand. I’ve no idea what I’m doing lol


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    FYI you start off with 12 troops, and get a extra troop each round for every 3 new places you own. You also get bonus troops if you hold the different continents.

    You also get a card if you take over a place during a turn. When you have 3 cards of the same colour, or one card of each colour, you can play them to get bonus troops.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    In those escalating games, its basically whomever survives long enough to get a decent card bonus wins.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    Also wait until you guys give the bigger world map a try.
