Conquer Club

what are spoils exactly and how do I get them and use them?? sorry if this sounds like a daft question but im new and stuggling to find information about spoils

Spoils are the same as 'cards' in the original RISK game. You get 1 spoil per turn, as long as you either conquer or bombard a territory on your turn.
You cash in spoils in sets of 3. You must turn in either 3 red cards, 3 green cards, 3 blue cards, or a mix of 1 red 1 green and 1 blue.
When you hold 5 or more cards, you must turn in a set.
Depending on the type of game you are playing, the spoils will have different effects when you turn them in.
Flat Rate: A rest set gives 4 extra armies, green 6, blue 8, and a mixed set 10.
Escalating: the first set of any kind turned in by any player gives 4, the next 6, then 8, 12, 15, 20, 25, ....
Nuclear: the armies associated with the territories on the cards you turn in are obliterated, whether they are yours or an opponents.

Perhaps it might be good for CC to list the different types of spoils and rules regarding them under the help tab.

There is some info regarding spoils in the instructions.

Ah yes that is good. I thought I saw it somewhere before but couldn't remember where
