Very nice board. Looks great, plays well with different group sizes, graphics look awesome, requires careful planning and strategy, borders are clear, nice use of one way borders to add a bit of interest. Easy 7 or 8 for me bumped up to 10 for the unfair and stupid 1 star review.
liked this board a lot...may be because I won, or maybe because I am British. Found the borders required careful planning, so it seemed to be a good test of a risk player's strategy
I have played many games with 3 players and it does not lend itself to being evenly matched. Once one player becomes even slightly more advantaged the game is over. I have not had fun with it, even when I won.
Okay graphics
nice addition of neutrals and one way borders
