Image is good, borders clear. Cards are of influential people, even if wicked... I like it personally, but it is a board with no gimmicks, bells or whistles... moves at a good pace. Appropriate card scale. Good for 3-5 players.
It's just a collection of territories with no choke points. If the excuse is "Hey, ..it's a map of Germany." Then I'd say, "Why bother"?.
Weird card choices (they are nothing more than convenient, easy to find images). The whole thing is just generally uninspired.
Hey, it's functional. The borders are very clear. I'd like to give it a fair, but apparently fair is better than "average."
It's Risk, only for Germany. Nothing more, nothing less. Uses current political boundaries for territory bonuses, which is nice. Graphics are clean. All in all, a reasonably enjoyable Risk clone.
