If you can't find a scenario to your individual tastes here there might not be any hope for you here. Well managed initial bonus allotments and card set values make for balanced play regardless of seat assignment. Yes, it's a stripped down version of Invention making the map familiar to all visually, but it offers it's own version of fun play. Big game, small game, duels it's all here. Hidden in plain sight.

Playing in a DEv game. Looks promising.

Balanced map with easy to define borders

See Willy Wonka's review

Same board as invention except without the research and tech points. The only difference between this and normal risk is the capitals.
Great for people who like invention, but wish it was faster

Clear borders, easy to play.

great board my favourite

Loved this map. Very balanced and determining when to take a city makes the game far more interesting!!
