How To Play Classic Risk Board Game

A quick tutorial on how to play the board game classic Risk. In case I forgot to mention it, after you defeat an army and take over territory you have to move in as many armies as you attacked with on the last roll.

man I remember as a child we didn't really know what we were doing so grandma and I would just set up the figures and use them as toys and pretend to battle each other's countries instead.

I used to live this game as a kid back in the 80's. It's been going for well over half a century now. The only problem I found was in getting players. I had the same issue with D&D and Warhammer as I got older. I'd be lucky if I could get three people in on a game. It was inevitable that the role playing/strategy board game past time would decline as computers began to get powerful enough to run complex mathematical/graphical engines. When I look at RISK for example, I naturally think of Europa Universalis 4.

I still have ours from the 70's or early 80's that used the caltrops looking plastic pieces instead of army men. If you asked me how it was played I'd have no idea it's been so long lol

You attacked a square with 3 dice against one, then said you can move as many troops in as you like. You had 4 there and moved 2 in. I think you have to move at least 3 in, if you roll 3 dice, then deploy one back if that is the end of your turn. If you wanted to just move 2, I think you have to only roll 2 dice against the opponents one. 4 men in a territory is the minimum you need to roll 3 dice, any less than that and you can only roll two or one, as one is always counted as holding the territory you are fighting from.

The game should actually be called "Whoever Takes and Holds Australia First, Wins".

Problem with risk was there was no where to throw the dice.

I wish I could post a pic of my custom Risk table I made, 4' x 5' … a 2.5 scale enlargement of the tri-fold Risk / Castle Risk combo game board … it is beautiful !

Historically the British Empire did once try to rule the world

“And they have defeated the red army” if that was was real the one who defeated them is a God

You take one risk card when you win the battle or when you occupy another player's territory

[rabbysreejon]

In Risk game what we get at google they have changed some rules! Example: you can get fixed card bonus.

Maybe we've been playing wrong but in the version i play you gwt a risk card everytine you defeat a country.
Defeat 4 countries and you get 4 risk cards.

Hey thanks. Quite question though, You never explained about the 5 and 10 unit prices and how you use them. Whether you can attack with them or how to get them?? Can you please explain

[mehmetnamver]

The problem of risk that rolling dices when attacker and defender has more than 20 or 30 units. You roll dice forever. They should find an easy way to solve this problem.

What happens to the cards once they are cashed in? Are they taken out of play, or do they return to the deck? If they return to the deck when does the deck get shuffled? If they are taken out of play what happens when all cards are used?
