[quote who="MagicwillNZ" reply="6" id="2454894"]This would actually be quite good. You could have a sort of "prisoner's dilemma" situation here as well, testing the trust between two factions. [/quote] I was going to use the phrase "prisoner's Dilemma" in my own reply, but then I wasn't sure if it was a universally well known situation?

The comment that started this conversation was that this guy was confusing making mods with making other games using this engine....This engine that Frogboy has said on more than one occasion was designed to be the core of their titles going forward.

[quote who="LDiCesare" reply="21" id="2452393"]I don't think that it is actually a good idea. Ok modding is cool, but I expect mods to be variation of the same style of game. I don't expect to get an RPG or an First person shooter from a 4x strategy game. I expect another 4X strategy game as a mod. I had the chance to try an RPG mod for starcraft and it sucks. Because starcraft was not designed for this and that is OK. So yes, you can allow yourself some flexibility but you cannot

1. ummm yes? At least for most of that. 2. No 3. RIght now everything just moves 1 space, although I'm sure that will change 4. It seems there will be different types of villages if only because you only have so much room to build things and also due to resource location. I would answer this as Yes although in an organic way.

[quote who="pslblog" reply="13" id="2449404"]Quoting KellenDunk, reply 12 This is one of the dumbest things I've ever read. Risk's only economy is based on how much land you control. TO suggest that it should be a simulation is silly. Land generates troops. Complete continent holding generates troops. Card turn-ins generate troops. This is economy in Risk. You may not be used to playing with the card rules, but it makes Risk a lot more fun for people in

Reply to So We Played "Risk" Tonight... in War of Magic Elemental Forums

[quote who="pslblog" reply="10" id="2449202"]The economics associated with "jiffy-pop" armies from risk are so ludicrous as to even give congress pause. The cards add an element of strategy to blitzing other players, but detach it from reality to a very great extent. Certainly the card collection rule was obviated by machine guns and explosive shell artillery, or WWI would have played out way differently. One thing I love is building units, and that just does not

Reply to So We Played "Risk" Tonight... in War of Magic Elemental Forums

[quote who="landisaurus" reply="5"] The problem with risk is it is too focused on luck, and not focused on... well, anything else. There is a little bit of strategy, such as heavily defending bottlenecks, or spreading all your guys out 2 to a country rather than 1 so its harder to steam roll. But for the most part it all bows to dice. If you have rotten luck, 1 guy who keeps rolling 5s and 6s will flatten your 40 troop army. (I've seen it happen) [/qu

It just seemed to be a wasted book. The bible is the best selling book, and they don't include books that don't fit. We don't have to consider books
