Am I missing something or is this the board game Risk, plain and simple? Same exact map, same principle, same mechanics. You've managed to code this, so you obviously have enough talent to make your own game, why do you steal other people's intellectual property?

111 army per turn. Are these people manufactured or what? Just gotta love how there is a 300 giant army in antarctica hiped up for a war with all their weapons frozen in ice.

@elu8: a bit of luck helps of course but the other key thing is to disrupt the AI from gaining bonuses. Sometimes you just need to send out that 3 armies to take a territory you know you will probably lose the next turn. Just to give the AI something more attractive to hit than the piece of land you want to keep.

@dirktheone: I loved playing EpicWar 3 and 4.. but 5 was just meh. One mark of a good game is whether it holds your attention and keep you coming back. I tried EW5, didn't really got me going. Then Warlight came out, I haven't touched EW5 since.

It seems like in the harder challenges all the AI are automatically drawn to killing you, and don't give you time at all to build up.
Actually they treat you the same as other AIs. The code doesn't even look at the IsHuman flag. They also prefer to expand over fighting. It's just that there are a lot more AIs than you, so you almost always get in their way :)

I started playing Warlight about one year ago, and I'm still enjoy playing it :D The amount of options when creating a game is just amazing, it's hard even to list all of them :P Despite this fact, making your own game looks complicated only at the beginning, you'll begin to feel it after about your first 50 games :P BUT the true thing, that makes me enjoying it for so long are multi-player games, it's a pity there is no such an option here, fighting against friends is a lot more fun then against AI. The only thing that I was wondering about, is why it appears so late here??? 5/5 because I can't give more :)

I've never played a risk game so in depth like level 3! Boy did you work on this game hard cause its definitely well built, 5/5 for such designing in later levels!

Brilliant game! And good background music. I also love the fact you've added most of the countries, like New Zealand :D

Oh wow, I loved this game from level 1, but it just keeps becoming more and more amazing the longer you play. This is the first time I've ever wanted to rate a game 6/5, because it got my 5/5 from level 1-2 already!

level 3 seems to be pretty impossible. no matter what i do i eventually end up against armies of 30, 40 or or more and get wiped out within ten turns after encountering one. tried a couple of different tactics, from being very offensive to spreading slow focusing on building a solid army, to hogging the cards until i run up against a large army, nothing seems to work. other two levels were fun, third is ridiculously frustrating.

The Save Game feature does not work, I've had to Log out and everytime I return to the game thinking It was saved After saving it No Saved game data

To all of you who think this game is hard you need to realize that this is for more mature players who like strategy games. You have to be a little old-school about games to play this one because of the time requirement and the thinking process. This is not like a shooter game you can master in ten minutes, this requires a passion for strategy. And a well done game too, unique and well thought out. If only more game developers worked as hard as this one. 10/5.

Brilliant game, can't stop playing different custom games :D
One thing I think that could make it better though would be something like joint attacks and increased odds of winning when doing this. For example, you own two territories that are both connected to one of your enemy's territories and make both attack it. Because you're flanking the territory, you have a better chance of defeating it. This could make your offensive selections more tactical and fun.
But still 5/5 game, great fun :D

this game is frustrating as shit, the other teams gang up on you, 1/5 cause even with instructions/hours of practice, i dont get anywhere

I'm not going to lie, everyone that thinks this is exactly like Risk probably thinks Risk is also exactly like Axis & Allies. Also, I can't conceive how anyone can think poorly about this game. Too many people have that Victorian-England pompous "If the game isn't tailored to fit MY personal interests, then phhht, -2/5. Just accept a genius design when you see it!

Excellent adaptation of Risk, thanks for posting! If possible, could you make it easier to select kamchatka when attacking from Alaska and vice versus. Right now you have to scroll the screen just right in order to see both - a little tricky.
Very minor, everything else works great :)

When I won the first three levels without even thinking about it, I figured I could beat the three challenges, too. Yeah, I was wrong.

I think a 2 player function on one computer would be nice because it's a bit painful waiting for the other player to respond as well as the delay

There's definitely a bug in this game somewhere. I've looked through the history and see an AI who can only generate 5 armies per turn (because they hold no territories) suddenly gain 100 armies. There's no way that they can generate that even if they held on to their +6 army cards from the start. This happens at least once per game. I've seen an AI suddenly gain 200 armies in a turn. Reviewing the history and the charts, there is just no way that this should be possible. I think you need to check the code somewhere..

Great Game, nice twist to the original Risk :)
