Me, my brother, and my cousin.  I have strategic alliances with both.  I end up winning.  (surprise!)

Not to hijack the thread but my best RISK memory was the day I realized I could have more fun playing games like Memoir '44 or even Starcraft.

But as an old-school RISK junkie, I have to say that I'm very happy about the new "black ops" rules that they folded into their new revision of the game.  Opens up way more strategic planning.  Still doesn't make me feel better about putting all my hopes on those infuriating dice.  :p

The fact that you mentioned "missions" leads me to believe you might be playing this new revision, or one like it that has mission variants included.

[Red]

Yeah i'm playing the revision.(BTW don't have acsess to a game store to get those games)

[SomeKittens]

Ah, Starcraft.  They made a board game out of that too.

[The Schaef]

Yes.  In order not to clog a decent RISK thread, I will just refer you to where I rave about it here.

Thought Hammer is your friend

I think the missions are the best thing to happen to RISK since the franchised Lord of the Rings edition.

Not sure I like the little arrows, though.

[Red]

Can't buy online. but yeah the arrows stink. i wanted army men.

My best memory is when my family banned me from the RISK table for killing my aunt when we had missions, and it wasn't my mission.

Best Risk memory:  1 against 32.  Ultimate win for battle with only one dice for defense!
