Welcome to the Risk team tournament! For those who are unfamiliar with the game, Risk is a strategy-based board game taking place on a map of the world. Players take turns deploying troops on their countries and roll dice to try to conquer countries from their opponents. Risk can be played online at http://www.conquerclub.com. This tournament will be based on teams of two people, with each teams facing another during a round. If you enjoy playing risk or have never played risk before and want to try it I encourage you to sign up.
Sign ups
Sign ups are now open. Each partner should post to confirm his or her spot on a team. If you don’t have a partner yet but want to join, please sign up saying so. People not yet on teams will be randomized when sign-ups close.
Teams:
1. Serenity/thunda- Team Frisk
2. matty/LonelyNess- Team Big Red Ball Rubbers
3. moi/billymills- Team Conquering Canucks
4. Veedrock/Amelia- Team No
5. Shiv/Lesm46
6. Bass/Lightwolf- Team Berries
7. Assassinfred/marker- Team Siddown
8. Tennisace/Umbreon Dan- Team Spiffy
9. CrabNebula/Hipmonlee- Team Cheaters
10. MagicMaster87/Scrubs
11. Glass Cobra/Gay Dolphin
12. tehpiplupman/Yoshiking
Additional Rules:
1. All smogon forum rules apply.
2. As mentioned above, games will be played at www.conquerclub.com. If you have never played or are rusty at Risk, it’s recommended that you try out a few practice games since Risk is a simple game to learn. Basic rules can be found here: http://www.conquerclub.com/public.php?mode=instructions1
2. Each round will be best two out of three matches. If both teams want to their round can be shortened to 1 match per round because of timing issues as long as this is decided in advance . Doubles games tend to last 30-40 minutes.
3. IRC is required for setting up games. The channel #risk at synirc.net can be used for this. The easiest way to set up a game is for the game creator to send the game link to your partner, then to the other team so players join in the proper order. If you have trouble getting on to start a game at the same time as your partner/opponents, you can also ask the hosts or someone you trust to be on to join the game for you.
4. Basic settings for doubles conquer club games are: random maps, 4 players, doubles, freestyle, chained reinforcement, no fog of war, and casual round length. Feel free to use different settings such as fog of war if both teams agree to it, but all matches must be doubles.
5. Some other helpful rules for doubles games are that whichever team ends the turn last must wait until the first team starts their next turn to begin moving, and that extra armies (but not whole countries) can be reinforced to your partner at the end of a turn.
Have fun and enjoy the tournament!
