Mock game in progress |
I have printed a temporary map. I want to play test a couple of games and specific mechanics as well as make sure that all the territories are large enough.
One change I noticed immediately, well actually I didn't notice it but everyone else did, that the font I used for the territory names is too hard to read from across the table. I am on the fence about changing the font. What I have now is perfect stylistically, and in game, functionally, one could point to the territories attacking to and from.
In case you do not recognize the components, I will give a run down:
- Colored army pieces are from the 1993 Risk set
- Grey city pieces are form the 2008 Risk set
- White castle/tower is from LOtR Monopoly set
- Grey castle/keep is from LOtR Monopoly set
- Ship is from Pirates of the Caribbean Game of Life
- Colored "dome" capitol pieces are from the 2008 Risk set
I bough the 2008 Risk game (still available on store shelves). All the other components were bought off eBay on the cheap except for the Caribbean Life game that I picked up at a thrift store for $1.
Why are maps the most comfortable place for a cat to sleep? |
So far everything is looking good. I have enough tokens made to run through a game. Having the map in hand at full scale, I already have a bunch of new ideas that will fine-tune some of my floundering mechanics.
Next step is to assemble all of my notes into something that can be referenced in game and play!
Hello,
ReplyDeleteDo you already have a something with the rules and the missions and rewards?
I Have also build the game so I want to know a little bit more about the rules you have made?
Please let me know.
Thank you
Hi! Is it possible for you to release the hi-res Risk board once more? The previous links don't work for me. Thank you!
