GFF Risk 9: It's About Time

You can attack other states, either next to Washington or the states you just annexed. You've got 3 more attacks.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

3 Dice Rolls Iowa

Oh sweet I did not realise my states were immediately annexed. Let's heat this shit up.

e: Commies on your doorstep, gentlemen.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Sweet Jesus, 4 for 4. I'd celebrate that Rockgamer has finally met his match, but you took one of my territories too.

Time for Round 2. Tritoch is in last place with 3 states, so he may annex 2 unclaimed states when his turn comes. Hawkeye, second to last with 5 states, will get the remaining unclaimed state.

No more safety net. Players can be knocked out of the game starting now.

How ya doing, buddy?

4 Dice Rolls Wyoming

I'll start off attacking Utah, Colorado, and Vermont (nothing personal Dull, I just don't like seeing all that yellow next to me), and I'll see where to go from there.

EDIT: Well shit, after that I have to go after Wyoming.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Has anyone else noticed that all other activity in this forum abruptly died about the same time as our game started?

4 Dice Rolls Alaska

Alright, it's time to annex Indiana and Virginia. Then I'll attack Maryland and California. Attacking Washington now. Wow, it actually worked! Alright, finishing things off with Alaska.

Screw it, moving my tanks into Alaska. This cold tundra belongs to me!

FELIPE NO

4 Dice Rolls Utah

Time to expand the Turnip Empire.

I attacked Ohio, Tennessee, Tennessee again, and Utah. Damn Mormons have good defenses. It's tempting to nuke something, but I'll hold off for now.

Also, I went ahead and credited West Virginia to Hawkeye.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

4 Dice Rolls Mississippi

Alrighty. New York, Idaho, Utah, and Mississippi!

Jam it back in, in the dark.

4 Dice Rolls texas

hmmm... Minnesota, Ohio, Indiana, and Texas

this is looking like it's going to be a very brief game... i'm 1 for 8

Most amazing jew boots

4 Dice Rolls Colorado

I'll attempt Colorado, Indiana, North Carolina, and Missouri.

Most amazing jew boots

7 Dice Rolls Vermont

Alright Turnip, you asked for it

Edit:
Just checking if I should have 31 gil instead of 29. I defended Tennessee successfully from Rockgamer, and another time from nuttyturnip, right?

Oh, and it's still my turn since KrelEn hasn't posted yet, so I'll try a gamble.

Tanks on Illinois. This gives me one gil, from 29 to 30, or 31 to 32.
In any case, I have enough money to buy an Atomic Bomb, which I will now use.

Luck isn't with me, and nuttyturnip lives! I invade Ohio and Pennsylvania.

Energy Boost!
I will go for Maryland. Dice, be with me!
Woohoo! Extra turn on Vermont.

I offer Illinois to Dullenplain in exchange for South Carolina.
I also offer Tritoch a permanent truce, because I think it's hilarious if he wins this game and gets "marred with a huge asterisk" next to his name

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

7 Dice Rolls North Dakota

Let's see... Attacking Louisiana from Mississippi.

Very good. Now attacking Texas from Arkansas.

Grand. Now attacking Wisconsin from Minnesota.

Well, all good plans and all that... Attacking Wisconsin once more.

Fuck you, Wisconsin!

Fuck it; I'll drop an A-bomb on Illinois. I shall take the irradiated midwestern shitholes of Wisconsin and Missouri as my spoils.

Also, what the hell I'm feeling good tonight. ENERGY BOOST time. I'll attack Oklahoma from Arkansas.

Great. Oklahoma is mine. Now I'll attack North Dakota from its southern counterpart.

Shitcock. I'm moving my tanks into North Dakota.




I do believe I am now some variety of warlord.

Most amazing jew boots

Technically, I think the A-bomb is only supposed to give you the original state and up to three others, but my wording in the description was vague (so you'd only get Illinois and one other). I cut and pasted from my last Risk thread, and I see it differs from what's in the Wiki. Your move stands, and at least for this game, the A-bomb works like Krelian interpreted. Not like you'll be a Warlord for long anyway.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Yeesh, that makes A-bombs just disgusting now... possible states going from 1-4 to 2-5? That's nuts!

FELIPE NO

7 Dice Rolls Connecticut 2

Since the Atomic Bombs are borked now, I'll take one of those and use it on Nevada.

Sweet, that nets me Nevada, California, Idaho, Utah, and Wyoming.

Next, I'll use my tanks on Alabama.

Now I'll attack Kansas.

Now New York.

And now I'll use my Energy Boost to attack Connecticut.

Fuck

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

As much as I hate to point this out, I don't think you can take Wyoming with that since it isn't connected to Nevada. You'll have to take Oregon.

It's connected to Utah and Idaho. Adjoining means all states have to touch, but they don't all have to touch the original state.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I was thinking about that, but it kinda doesn't make sense. Say if I had dropped it on Alaska for instance, would that mean the only other state I could get is Washington, even if I had rolled a 4? That's why I assumed it meant any connected group of states, as long as at least one of those states were connected to the original one the bomb was dropped on.

I guess we'll need nutty for clarification, though.

EDIT: Oh, he beat me to it.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I assume you're making one more attack before I update the charts?

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I thought I used them all.

Oh crap, I didn't realize EB was two extra turns.

I was speaking idiomatically.

You attacked Kansas twice and New York twice, then Connecticut. An Energy Boost gives you 2 extra attacks, so you should have one left.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Still didn't help.

How ya doing, buddy?

14 Dice Rolls Mississippi

It appears it's time to spring the pincer attack. Team Devin owns the west, so now I shall claim the east starting by reclaiming my capitol in Rhode Island.

Let's start things off by dropping a nuke on Connecticut. Sorry about breaking the freshly formed alliance Plarom, but if I don't grab your booty Nutty will. Mwahaha, that takes care of Rhode Island, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine.

Let's continue the bloodbath by using one Energy Boost and attacking Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee.

Okay, fine. Apparently if I want to slaughter the South I'll have to do it the old fashioned way. Using my winnings from Plarom to drop a second nuke on Tennessee. There we go, that takes care of North Carolina and Georgia. Now I'll use the Tank I took from Plarom to conquer Hawaii and claim Zerg's stuff for myself.

I'll cool off on the nukes a bit and make a regular attack against South Carolina now. And another normal attack against Kentucky. I'll use another Energy Boost and do a normal attack against Indiana. Let's try Indiana again. Much better, and that nets me Dull's stuff.

I believe I have 2 attacks 1 attack remaining at this point, but first I'll live out my life-long fantasy and nuke Maryland. That takes care of Pennsylvania. Now I'll roll a tank into Ohio to claim Nutty's swag as my own and lay Team MD to rest. Another tank will roll into West Virginia to claim their inbred mutant armies for my own.

Continuing the nuclear chain, I'll use the money earned from Nutty to drop another nuke on Michigan. That takes care of Wisconsin and Illinois. Poor Chicago, getting nuked twice in one day. I've got one last tank, so I'll use that to finish off Hawkeye by capturing Montana.

And then there were three. I'd like to see this super power battle play out, plus I'm rapidly losing track of what I actually have now, so I'll finish off with an Energy Boost and use the three attacks to target Minnesota, North Dakota, and Mississippi. This is what happens when you anger me on day one.

Oh, and Rock has agreed to a trade. I'm giving him Washington, Oregon, and Alaska for New York, Vermont, and New Jersey Team Devin pincer attack gooooo!

Most amazing jew boots

Posting to confirm the trade...and :trirape:

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Additionally, I'm giving him Hawaii for Washington DC. I know it's not a real state, but slaves are slaves.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
