Conquer Club

When playing the board game Risk, some mates and I often choose our starting territories rather than randomly selecting them, so my suggestion is that at the start of speed games, each player should get 30 secs or 1 minute to deploy one troop on a territory of their choice. It could also be limited so that no player can place more than 3 troops on any one territory.

Obviously this idea would slow the start of the game down, which is why i'd suggest it only be used in speed games and also that it would be a game setting option, similar to fog of war or doubles etc.


What do people reckon?

sounds like a good idea to me , maybe not as standard at start of a 2 player game , but would be a cool option , which could be chosen when creating the game , maybe even in multiplayer games up to 8 people , with the option being auto deploy or manual old school deploy . would make the game almost back to the original that we all use to play . nice idea , gets my vote

1)
use the form
2)
is what ur saying basically that you can choose ur own starting terits - if so that is open to MAJORRR abuse so wouldnt be allowed
