I like the game in terms of concept and such, but what really ruins for me is the gameplay - the tedious clicking. Why do we need a whole phase dedicated just to confirming our actions and then have to click one button more to actually see the turn go. Other than that, nice game...

Attacks between Kamtchaka and Alaska are difficult, as when you scroll the map to select the other, the attacking country gets unselected (That is, you click Alaska, then you click on map to scroll, and that causes Alaska to get unselected). Any workaround? So far my only option is to click and scroll the map, take the mouse out of the game window, and unclick there.. But that's not very good.
You have to zoom out so that you can see both at the same time (zoom buttons are in the bottom right corner of the map). Or you can click one, then click More Info, then select the other from the list.

It seems the enemy AIs always gang up on you. I take africa, everything's cool. Than two AI attack me at the EXACT SAME TIME on the EXACT OPPOSITE SIDES. So yeah...

I found a small bug. While the battles are fought , and you press the '< button the sound of the attacking and so on still keep sounding.

Looks like there's a couple of bugs; enemy can turn after turn early in the game add +20 or +30 to several locations and also don't seem to attack each others.
When the game ends you can use history to see exactly where they got their armies. Also, the AIs treat eachother no differently than they treat humans - their code doesn't even look at the IsHuman flag.

Seems to be a lot of New Zealanders on here. On WarLight.net, you can play on a NZ map! Check it out here: http://warlight.net/SinglePlayer.aspx?PreviewMap=1630

"Sir, what do we do now that Madgascar has closed their ports!?"
"God dammit, those people are so damn ****ing paranoid. Can't they just we we're trying to spread the love?!"

Was thinking I was gonna have some free time this weekend... then I clicked this game. DAMN YOU FIZZER AND YOUR EPIC GAME! *Shakes fist angrily*
The attack dialog pops up so that your mouse cursor is over the 'okay' button, this allows for double-clicking when you just want to attack with all armies, which is what you want most of the time. When you need to adjust something, you can drag it back onto the map.

I can never win lvl 3, I always end up being hit from 2 sides by the 2 remaining countries as they ignore each other ):

Magnificence. I loved this game, and the fact that the map grows larger after level 2. One of the best games on Kongregate, without a doubt.
5/5, One I'd play again in a heartbeat.

Holy cow! I thought the game was an excellent Risk clone, then I found the custom game toolset. Now it is by far the best Risk-based game I've ever seen, and even tops the original!

im not sure if you got the idea from another game on kong (as there is one but i cant remember, world rebellion or something) but this is by far superior

I both hate and love this game at the same time. I hate it because the enemy defies all odds and win with only two armies against my 5 and I love because it's like Risk, only on steroids. 5/5

This game is fun, but it has serious flaws. I hate games where the "AI" involves simply stacking the odds against the player. I play smarter than the AI, but it wins because it can attack 8 against 7 and win, whereas I attack 12 on 7 and lose half my army.
The human and AI play by the exact same rules. 8v7 is only a 6% chance, so if you really saw that, you should go buy a lottery ticket. Also, in custom games, you can adjust how much that luck affects the game by dragging down the Luck Percentage setting.

I found a glitch! You cannot invade Asia from Alaska, although the yellow lines say you can. Please fix; if screwed up my strategy. Otherwise, 5/5.

I just beat the second challenge. Iceland shall rule the world! I love going back and watching what happened in the fog; enemies I thought were tough had had their guts ripped out from them by a foe on the other side. I love free-for-alls. I'd love if you could forge alliances in-game though.

Also perhaps clicking on the arrow towards the country you want to attack would be nice. Sometimes hitting the country is a bit hard.

what would be nice is a "half" button. So you can just click it and half of your army attacks one spot. Sliding the slider over and over is tedious

I wish the map was like a world / circle and could cycle around and around. It is very annoying to have to zoom way out to attack from one side to the other.

It would be nice if there were some instructions on how to play. It is LIKE Risk but NOT Risk. Put some damn instructions in.
The tutorial shows enough to get up and running, but if you want the nitty gritty details check wiki.warlight.net - it's all there! (The game links there under the Help menu)

Great game but I have to condem it because there is no sign of new zealand. Jokes aside I do have one complaint. I'm not familiar with risk but why do my three remaining armies withdraw after leaving the enemy teritory with one army?
Once you get to level 3 you'll find New Zealand -- the first two levels are smaller tutorial maps. For the combat question, the combat actually doesn't work like Risk - you can read about how it works on the wiki: http://wiki.warlight.net/index.php/Combat_Basics

Hey Frizzerwl, are you the same developer that did the web based game ? Outstanding game ! Any chance of porting it over to the Android or Apple OS ?
I am indeed the same developer - WarLight is a one man show. And yes, I'm working on Android and iPhone versions - stay tuned to blog.warlight.net for availability!

There are very few times I wish I could rate something 100 stars, this is one of those times. You sir, have created a masterpiece.
