moi aussi. I love risk

I am the hammer, I am the right hand of my Lord. The instrument of His will and the gauntlet about His fist. The tip of His spear, the edge of His sword. I am His wrath just as he is my shield. I am the bane of His foes and the woe of the treacherous. I am the end.

Sure :). Ender, I don't think I have you on facebook, PM?

Nope, you need an account to use the apps.

There's a couple versions of Risk on Facebook. I play the one called Attack! And I suck at it.

I'm down to use a non Facebook one. How long will this game take? I'd hate to commit to a month long game and not be able to do it...

Ok, we are dong the nonfacebook one I posted, landgrab. Anyone have a preference for map? I'm inclined to use the traditional one, though the Middle Earth one looks interesting and the Axis and Allies version map could alter gameplay.

maps

Post your landgrab name and the map you want.

I'm Losonti on there. I think if we're going to a standard Earth game we should play one of the maps with Antarctica on it, to give South America and Australia some extra places to be attacked from. The Axis and Allies map looks pretty cool too.
