Risk-Type game
 

So Im thinking about hosting a risk sort of game.


Back when TalkEmpire was still up, there was a guy named Craig who always hosted one.

I need about 6 people who want to try it out, as I dont remember our system 100%.

What exactly is this?

You create/choose a nation, pick the land for it, and you build it up every "turn" (1-2 turns a day).

Every day, a bonus is put into your nation, example:

Turn 1, 5,000 population
Depending on land, water, anything else I can dream up: Turn 2, 6,522 people.

Like that.

This game gives 100% freedom, so if you want to draft your population, go ahead. If you want to build ships and invade other countries (unless you border them) go ahead, and ill factor in the bonuses.

I need to make a freewebs site for this.

Anyone interested?


Time period chosen:
1900-
UPDATE:

WEBSITE



Those of you who arent 100% sure what this is, see my more detailed page here:
WHAT IS RISK?


Xfire would help, add me, Legionary74

Poll up for time period vote.


EDIT: Dammit, forgot modern times.

Can a mod add modern times (1991-) please?>

If not, just say it any ill tally them

Why not start the game around 1880 and end it in 1950, beginning right before the Scramble for Africa (when the Imperial Zenith of Europe began) and ending right after World War II in the years leading up to the harshest times of the Cold War?

Well you see, thats why theres voting :P

We decide when a period starts, then goes until someone controls the world.

Anyone interested?

I'll take Germany.

It's seriously dead in here tonight.

Due to the nature of subsim, ive decided the poll is closed, the time period will begin in 1900.

EDIT: I'm fixing the map so we can have near-authentic 1900 borders. Shouldn't be too hard since Kaiserreich is based off of Germany winning the Great War with only minor variations in territory boundaries.

If i can have Fistonia, i'm game, Fistonia is a unified nation of Finland and Estonia.

Actually, nevermind, turns out I actually have to do some work at work today, I have been here for 4 months and this is the first time I am actually doing something related to my job.

You have no idea how wrong you are, here, I shall demonstrate.

An no, I am not in, going to be busy most of today with some techicians here.

Do I smell file edit/mod?

Some limited editing, made Finland into fistonia, made all the estonian provinces natives, added new flag, combined the researcher pool and generals. After that it was all down to well timed warfare and preparations. The AI fails hillariously when you employ the tactic of in depth defense, let them create a salient, cut off their line of retreat and supply and watch hundreds of divisions of soviet troops get anihilated by CAS and finally moped up by infantry.
I did'nt play that game though, but a friend of mine did, I just gave him the idea of Fistonia and made the flag.

The name probably punched them silly:D

This map is completed for a Panthersprung scenario. I have tried to eliminate as many 1 or 2 province factions as is possible due to how minor they are. In some cases, province boundaries have been modified slightly to reflect this (the Arabian Peninsula and a couple areas in Central and South America in particular). Otherwise, all the islands put up on there have got the correct ownership displayed, Africa has been carved up accurately, and we should be good to go using this map. It's not completely historically accurate for the dead-center year 1900 (it more closely reflects 1912), but it will work well nonetheless.

So, nation lists should come next, yes? The map includes the nations of:

• Afghanistan
• Argentina
• Austria-Hungary
• Belgium
• Bhutan
• Bolivia
• Brazil
• Britain
• Bulgaria
• Canada
• Chile
• China
• Colombia
• Costa Rica
• Cuba
• Denmark
• Dominican Republic
• Ecuador
• El Salvador
• France
• Germany
• Greece
• Guatemala
• Haiti
• Honduras
• Italy
• Japan
• Mexico
• Nepal
• Netherlands
• New Zealand
• Nicaragua
• Norway
• Ottoman Empire
• Panama/Panama Canal Zone (the latter is under the control of the United States)
• Paraguay
• Persia
• Peru
• Portugal
• Romania
• Russia
• Siam
• Spain
• Sweden
• Switzerland
• Uruguay
• United States of America
• Venezuela

EDIT: I hope this won't disappoint, but Crete is not autonomous on this map, either. The Ottoman Empire retains full ownership of it. If anyone has a disagreement about this, I'll gladly make it part of Greece. Also, Britain owns Cyprus. Morocco I did not include on here simply because it makes the African situation complicated because of how the provinces are setup. Gibraltar has been made a part of Spain's national boundaries, but the British can base there.

Speechless.
