Hi all

I am a newbie and have launched into few games. The site and resources are excellent and just what i have been looking for. have played a bit of risk in my time and all seems pretty clear except - how does the card system work ie wot compiles a set?? Sorry for the dumb question tho I'm sure I'll have more :)

it hands out red green and blue you can get a set of all the same color or a mix. if the card is in bold it means u own the country and if u cash it in it gets 2 extra armies added to that country. than theres flat rate where 3 reds r worth 4 armies 3 greens r worth 6 and 3 blues r worth 8 and a mix set gets u 10 than in escalating each set of cards handed in the amount of armies continues to escalate



hope i answered any of ur questions about cards

I, for one, don't consider yourself a newbie if you're an experience Risk player. Conquer Club translates extremely well from the boardgame and is very intuitive once you get going. I've been playing Risk for 35 years and only recently started playing here but I never really considered myself a "noob."

I agree on the obsessive thing. This game has been haunting my dreams, and I'm only a freeplay member with a max of 4 games at a time. (way too poor at the moment to afford a subscription)

I don't know about tracking other players cards using a script, I don't want to know either, that's kinda cheating, But the list of moves above the gamechat tells you when someone cashes in a set, so you can check back and see when an individual player is likely to be due

Divorce

I wont let cc cause a divorce - my theory is to cut out the middleman - go find someone woman you really hate and give her half your stuff.

I don't have the script but I'm pretty sure it only gives you the card count,not what cards the person have so wouldn't be cheating as you could go through game log and find out. Also like the board game where you know how many cards your opponents have.

One thing someone forgot to tell you, in order to get a card you have to conquer another country from an opponent.
