Bring it on!

I spent the whole day yesterday playing Risk T_T One of the games were particularly memorable.

Here's how it goes:
You have 5 players playing passively. In the early game, each player occupies a continent. From mid game onwards, this is what each turn comprises:
1) Receive your reinforcements
2) Plant the reinforcements
3) Attack 1 territory (99% of the time that territory will consist of only 1 noob soldier)
4) Conquer that territory
5) Retreat all your armies back to your original territory
6) Receive a card

Take step 1 to 6 and multiply that by 32817289571829731... At the end of the game, each of us had like 300 armies each, and each card trade is 50 armies. Since Facebook doesn't have a cap of 25 soldiers per territory unlike normal Risk, you can easily have 300 armies in one territory. At this point in time, going head on against a player will easily mean death for both of you, and everyone is just sitting around waiting for someone to launch a suicide attack against someone else. What's that Chinese proverb called? 鹤蚌相争,渔翁得利 x)

That's when one of the players announced:
"I think we have achieved peace, fellas"

Here's a picture (not very clear though)
Really, there wasn't much point playing on. So in the end, we compared our current points and found out that I have the least. So everyone quitted game and I got all the points :)

Haha world peace ftw :D

PS: I miss playing Mission Risk and Capital Risk ): (Facebook Risk is all about world domination). And most of all, I miss playing Risk with real humans D: I can't remember when was the last time I did that..
