well, the update's basicaly done. as i hadnt read any of the sent orders, i did the orders for yellow myself. not like there was all that much choice anyway.
unfortunately, there were two people who tried to put 4 reinforcements where only 3 could go.
i have sent both a PM, if they get back to me with corrections before i get bored of waiting then i'll let them chose where the 4th army goes, if i get bored before they see the pms and respond then i'll just pick where to put it and stick ti there.
if you realy want the update asap, then post here asking me to pick them myself and post the update, the more people want me to not wait, the more likely i am not to wait

yo roddy can you surge into your own country? say i think blues gunna attack me in say congo, could i surge into congo?

no. wierdly enough you cant. i cant figure out why they made it that way, but you can not surge into your own territories.
i assume they made it so so that people couldnt use one big force to take a territory then come back to same spot. and keep branching out and coming back every turn.

i currently have orders from:
jason king = red
north king = blue
bacon king = black
kentharu = green
which leaves:
texas toast, who i believe currently controls the orange
and
Toteone, who i hope still controls the purple.
i'll have to do orders for yellow myself cause i havent found a player to take em.
if i dont get orders or atleast a reply from texas and tote by tomorow i'll send em PMs stating the same thing, and then the real annoying nagging begins.

texas toast is now running africa and the orange armies occupying it. you're request/comment should be aimed at kentharu.Toteone said:
and ye, horrid day at work, got almost yelled at by boss for being a dumbass (me being a dumb ass) so didnt realy want to have Risk up and running on my computer after that (could have gotten in even more trouble). hopefully tomorow will be a bit more calm and sane. and if anyone knows where texas toast is, tell him to get his but in gear and send them orders.

alright, since 10 days after my last post someone actualy remembered about this thing, i may as well do the update.
never did get orders from texas toast, so that wait was for no reason. oh well.
here are all the attacks. there's also surge attacks (for some reason they dont show on this screen in the game), will post those once i get to that point in the turn (in a couple mins)
EDIT:Surges:
Orange: North Africa to Brazil
Green (kentharu): Ukraine to Scandanavia
Yellow: North Europe to Britain
Purple(toteone): Mid East to Afganistan

OK, here's the results.
Now waiting for Tacktical Move orders.
remember:
pick ONE territory FROM which troops will move. (EDIT: changed "on" to "ONE")
chose which neighboring territories troops will move TO
a territory cannot RECIEVE more armies then 1+(neighboring territories you own)

since i doubt too many people remember about this game, i'm sending PMs to all the players to tell them of the update. if you're still interested please reply as soon as possible with your free move orders.
i have to keep the game open and running on my computer here at work, (which is not a negative thing when it comes to keeping my job) untill i do the free move phase (after which i can save the game and close the program).
i may stop by here tomorow evening (work is on the way from where i'll spend tonight and tomorow to home) and would LOVE to have most of the orders by then so i dont gotta leave this running till monday.
monday morning is LATEST POSSIBLE deadline of when i'll do the free moves and post the next update.

You could simulate it on a Risk board if you wanted w/ a list of territories, number of armies and bordering territories... wouldn't be that hard but we'd lose out on the visuals.
Hmmmm, I messed up logistics by reinforcement after the first round... *sigh* I wish I'd known about the transfer rules, thought it was 7 by 7. Ach, time to cut the crap. I have been lucky. Nothing to do by the logistics either.
PS. I need a card update, us who haven't screwed up should all have 3 cards by now and ca. a third of us may have the alternative of turning them in or not.
Question: Does East Africa border the M. East? I hope we can live in peace orange.
PPS. Let's double up on our orders by sending reinforcement orders as well.

problems with simulating this on a risk board are manyfold:
1. I dont have a risk board.
2. i dont have the wierd dice the same time risk uses for battles.
3. without the "visuals" as you put it, i'd have to wait even longer for people to do orders cause it would be way harder for you all to do them.
logistics..... consider yourself as having a heavily reinforced rear. that way it sounds like a good thing. but yes, big downside to Australia is that its hard to get troops off it (4/turn max and that's if you own china and india). but on the upside, its prety easy to defend.
card update: everyone but one player currently have 2 cards (that one has 1 card), and everyone will get one more card after this phase. i'll send everyone an updated list of cards after this update.
Answer: no Mid East is not connected to east africa. the connection is one of the "optional territories" that i decided not to use at the start of the game.
Re Orders:
of those 3 lines you have in your orders.... chose one, and that's what you get. "there can be only ONE". you can only move armies FROM one territory.

Whaaaat? That sucks!
... oh well
PS. You could use a text-based list. Just as good only with a total lack of visual aid.
PPS. Only pansy-asses can't make out a text-based game. OK, I may have given up Zork after 20 minutes many years ago when I was a little tyke (sort of) but I'm going to try again and the point stands.
Roddy, are you sure about the rules? I remember moving to Indonesia from both New Guinea and W. Australia. Or maybe it's only TO another territory.
