Played 1 vs 1 and it wasn't great. Not bad, but not great. Liked starting with 4 on each. Liked that you could fortify to any connected. But assuming you get those options on a standard Risk board I'm not sure what this one adds.
A great board with a cool twist from the original RISK to make it more unique while avoiding any copyright issues. Graphics & cards are fun, game play is easy to pick up, and transferring is perfect for this board. Only negative I can see is that the larger bonuses are almost not worth going for because the entire map is so easily accessible that players can eliminate each other simply by attacking and turning in cards. Regardless, it's a great board to play with any number of players.
