This was the biggest disappointment, 2 less options for how many players. Yes, I tried houseruling up some 2 player, and it just fell flat.<BR/><BR/>The different denominations of pieces (big arrows and little arrows) are more difficult to tell apart, and don't have as much charm (subjective to be sure).<BR/><BR/>The rules folder looked neat, but was a royal pain to use with all the different parts of the book being their own loose page of cardboard. <BR/><BR/>Much more minorly, the cards were flimsier then over Risk editions and the art directions seemed a bit scatterbrained: It's supposed to invoke a WWII or Cold War vibe, but there are pikemen on the box?<BR/><BR/><BR/>Risk 2210 remains king of the mountain as far as risk versions go for me, with Star Wars: Original Trilogy in 2nd place.Andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07130831351237667189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-327484429725532216.post-50453453339669943292008-02-27T18:44:00.000-08:002008-02-27T18:44:00.000-08:00I got to touch the box!!!I didn't get to play thou...I got to touch the box!!!<BR/><BR/>I didn't get to play though :(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
