people who complain about red advantage on friendly neighbors don't understand how to play it. I've played as blue and won manytimees. Anyway, this whole game was an awesome game, I loved it. However, it's been wayyyyyyy too addictive to me, and I'm seriously neglecting life because of it. So I'm retiring from the game and from this account at kongregate! Was fun while it lasted, adios.
My biggest complaint about this game is that he objects that I get are usually for the opposite sex! It's frustrating playing a lot and hoping to get another accessory, except that it ends up being for the opposite sex which is no good for me. (Other than that as per my previous comment, I love this game)
I loved this game! I started out in the middle my first game and conquered Japan. One thing that was weird is that one relative big country (had maybe 8-10 territories - was largest at the time) left its territories open to me so I just walked in and took the inside territories which helped me avoid being crushed from my middle start.
Some have suggested diplomacy - I say no diplomacy. It was refreshing for once not to have war-peace status, and not to deal with other nations. Was awesome not to have to deal with revenge and could decide on who to attack purely based on strategy and not being concerned with a nation taking revenge on me out of spite. Great game overall.
