Analysis of Online Risk

[Surrender Monkey]

Clickable Maps is being worked on, just so you know.
--Andy

THANK GOD AND THE STARS ABOVE!!!! You don't realize how much that change to clickable maps will increase the number of players and revitalize CC. I know I've been a pain in your asses about this, but, as I've said before....

If you build it, they will come

and I will be the first one to come over and bring my GF and several friends.

Actually Conquer Club won because the person read our Newsletter and saw my hilarious comics.

I'm such a comedic genius. Just like Christ Farley!

One of the funniest one is Stra.tegery.com where says that you can buy armies lol

also FellowshipOfLuca.com

Read the manifesto, join the cult, expand your mind. Oh and play some Risk too.

What type of page is this one

and about landgrab.net

Players can upload their own maps without official approval

Im wondering what you can find there

It is kind of funny how he scores things. For example, there is a fairly low score for vitality. I'm not sure I agree considering the sheer number of different maps and game types one can play on this site (not to mention the forums).

Yes,I also find it odd, but the important is what he/she said

to be honest..clickys must be integrated to the core page. For sure.

So now, CC, is on the Second position even though that is 7.5 a bit better
The first one being in beta has a score of 8.1
MajorCommand

Created by a splinter group of ConquerClub veterans, MajorCommand looks to bring something fresh to the table.

And with 6.2 warlight

An innovative online Risk site that could be a contended with some more members and better maps.

Well in 5th place with 3.9 there's also dominating12

This spinoff from a Conquerclub player had some potential but has since stagnated..

Apart from this ones, the other seems equal to the time this post was created

Yeah, them having Major Command at the top is bullshit.

The community over there sucks. You post a question in the forum, come back 5 days later, nobody has answered it. You start up a game, finally, 4 days later, it's filled. You get online hoping for a speed game, there are 2 other members online. You happen to not have the greatest internet connection, too bad, can't play. You want maps made by different people that don't all look the exact same, well, too bad. Sure, they're nice looking, but they all look done by the same person in the same style. Plus, there is only 1 or 2 that I personally enjoy. And with that few number of maps, how could anybody play there for any amount of time? You want a nice simple, clean interface that's not overloaded with pointless graphics, not gonna happen, sucks to be you.

Perhaps MC has the potential to be better than CC one day, but as of today, it most certainly is not. It really seems like whoever updated that list is biased in some way.

I was just glancing around Major Command and came across a blog post with newly released maps:

The third one looks awfully familiar! I'm guessing Oaktown was one of the players that moved over there and took his map with him.

Who left to make Majorcommand anyway?

heheee... funny seeing this post unanswered here after 3 months, and just a few posts above seeing tkr dis them for taking a week...

Anyway, as a classic old school RISK player, here is my 2 cents worth...

Dominating12 is pretty sweet, and I must appreciate that it is the ONLY internet site i have found that actually uses the ORIGINAL escalating rules, and as a result has the most dynamic game play. Also, the new mgnt there is decidedly active, why i have even seen suggestions and quick implementations on the fly within several games. Very cool indeed. This site should be near the top of the list now.

MC is cool, but it was coded in a cumbersome way that makes it dreadfully slow. Until the coding is fixed, this site should not be anywhere near the top. As for escalating, they are even further away from the original rules than CC, but it's not hard to adapt to the strategy.

Escalating is painful as is the speed. For better or worse they are aiming for a completely different idea with how to handle posts and such.

It will be interesting to see how and if it works out.

CC is so much better overall than the 4 Ive played at its not funny, but each one definitely has its unique little benefits.
