Great online community based around the classic board game of RISK. Many different options & styles of play, 140+ maps to choose from, ranging from varying country maps to fantasy lands (age of realms, Midkemdil, DraknorDungeon, ww2 event maps (pearl harbour, iwo jima, ardennes, d-day omaha beach, etc), incorporation of other classic games into the Risk-style formula (chinese checkers, crosswords, connect4, pac-man even!).
You can enter single games from 2-8players, or decide to join any number of ongoing tournaments, with thems of varying nature, from sports events (football, nfl, tennis, etc), thematic events (like talent shows we have all become accustomed to on the TV), maybe 1specific map is the theme, the list goes on.
There is also a strong community forum for those who like to network with others, as well as playing the games, very diverse, all subjects covered.
The site is maintained inernally by its memebers & all maps are Beta tested b4 they are released. For those strategists who use Firefox, the Greasemonkey add-ons add another dimension to the playing showing stats, clickable maps & the like.
