I really like this idea, and I'm kinda bummed out that there aren't really any "small-scale" maps out there. Why not have an "Ant Attack" kitchen and/or backyard map, or do battle in a CPU, or something like that.

I'll also like to sign up as a mentoree, (3). I haven't played any Risk before finding this site but I think I have a hang of the controls, and have even won one(1) game. I guess you can PM if you are interested.
