Finally a risk like game where when i attack with 16 armies vs 1 army i don't lose 15 armies and fail to take the area @_O. I have bad luck FYI.

@chadcoakley it always happens in these sort of games, just make sure ALL the territories touching your enemy's have a good bit of armies in them.

Really cool game, but what's the difference between a blockade card and abandon card? Perhaps an error, for all I can see is the default multiplier is higher on blockade. ;) Still a sweet game!
Abandons happen at the start of your turn and blockades happen at the end. Basically, abandons are more powerful. See http://wiki.warlight.net/index.php/Abandon_Card_and_Blockade_Card

Really great, my only complaints are that going from say Alaska to Kamchatka is annoying because if you scroll it deselects your country and it doesn't register clicking on the arrow. Also, there needs to be a way to pick custom starts from more than just the preset areas on custom maps.
Other than that, wonderful game 4/5
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.
For the custom starts - there is a way, check the "Custom Scenario" option and you can set exactly how the map starts.

5/5. The only issue i have is that because it isn't turn by turn, that one enemy territory always seems to move first and ruin my area bonus. Over and over and over again. And to try to get rid of it, I have to waste time and troops getting rid of them, inevitably making me lose. Other than that, I really enjoy the game.

Dear Lord WL. Can we have a hot key to switch between 1.Deploy and 2.Transfer/Attack?
I like to switch between the two - for them surgical direct strikes.

AMAZING game. only thing is i keep having to move my troop amount menu everytime i go to deploy them. minor annoyance but otherwise perfect game :D

SUCH A FRUSTRASTING GAME LEVEL 3 ALWAYS STARTS WELL THEN GOES INTO STALEMATE UNTIL I GET BORED. But i love it :D 5/5... for some reason

Okay, I've been trying to find a "Risk" themed game forever now. I tried World Rebellion but I couldn't play it. I'm so glad someone else did the same thing.

From humble beginnings in Mauritania, a man would arise to conquer the entire world, battling across Africa to eventually South America, claiming Antarctica, Australia and carving out a piece of Asia. Soon a great war started in America and Canada and Europe went up into an arms race, after a previous aftermath of total war in Asia their lands were easy pickings for the Empire that stretched halfway around the world. America and Canada were caught in a pincer movement of armies causing a climax to a war that raged for years. Slowly the battered troops in America went on to Europe and a triple movement occurred crushing all within Europe that still opposed the Empire, the rest of the world followed in a few years. Victory for the user :D. GREATNORMOUS game. 5/5

first i thought wow 3 years on a flash game?
but wow this game is great.
1 small thing would be great: the little window that appears where you can choose how many
units you transfer, it would be great if it would STAY where you drag it for every country

Really good game. Much better than World Rebellion. At least you can actually play this one XD
lol, but, still, nice game.

First of all, the game is super addictive. Before I knew it, I spent an hour and a half playing it. There are two things that bug me a bit though. 1. I don't like to have my map zoomed all the way out, but when it's up close, some of the countries on the borders are hard to see. I wish there was like a scroll zoom but that's a fairly minor thing. 2. When you select a country on the border of the world, the box that lets you pick how many armies do something tends to be outside the screen so I have to drag it in. It'd be nice if the box would always pop up in the middle of the screen. Still, a GREAT game and by far the best risk-like game I've seen on kong. Definite 5/5

@Chez557 No it wasn't, if you're going to make claims, at least do some research, don't just make blind statements. I agree with you that games like this are probably based on Risk, but Risk was based on La Conquête du Monde, which translates to "The Conquest of the World". Course I just took 3 seconds to google it, so I'm not even going to claim with absolute certainty that I'm accurate, but only that Risk isn't "The original".

Good grief! Does anyone have any tips on insane? I abandoned Africa and focused on developing North America and Europe. I survived until turn 22 which I consider an accomplishment! They start pounding you on turn 11. Great game by the way!! 5/5

I hope you all realize that this game has already been made five hundred times over...The original name on a board game is called Risk

all these people are relating to the game "risk" ive never played it, so can someone advise me if i will still enjoy this or not?
Risk is an old board game. Risk is not a bad game, but it's not designed for online play. It's designed to be played around a table over a couple hours. Online, we don't live by the same constraints, so the rules in WarLight fit better to online play.

at the beggining i was: "oh! a risk game, i like that" when i reached level 3 and saw the ubbermap I was like: "5/5!5/5!5/5!5/5!5/5!5/5!5/5!5/5!5/5!"

Winning strategy: If you start in the middle of a large landmass restart your game until your on an island or right next to one. Next take over the territories immediately surrounding you (depending on where you start this may mean a whole continent) until you've made it so that the enemy can only get to you through three or four territory's. Next use on of these "gateway" territories to evade the smallest accessible land mass (remember islands are your friends) and use your spare armies to beef up your other gateway countries. Once you have two fairly secure groups of territories under your control try to expand around the edges of the map. Going for the center of a large number of territories will only get you killed. If you're careful and advance with caution you'll be able to surround the huge land masses on all sides then you can move in for the kill.

You should make it where your settings stay when you make a custom game, it gets tedious having to in-put the cards every time.

The game is overall enjoyable, but i found navigating around the map a bit annoying. If I tried to transfer to a country on the edge of the map, the window would be stuck halfway into the right side of the screen and I would have to drag it back over. Otherwise, I liked it. 4/5.

Caderyn, I am fine with AI being intelligent, I typically play games on the highest difficulty available... I am not fine with the AI clearly basing it's moves off of my own. I even tried attacking 3 places at once and the AI just happens to know that every time, and reinforces all 3 to the best of it's abilities. Eventually they do get overwhelmed because you can abuse said behavior to it force them to waste armies while you suck up all the other countries with a tiny force, but that is hardly what I would call strategic, more like pedantic. Granted, an excellent idea, even decent execution, just seriously lacks the fun factor if you aren't into grindy games.

Was supposed to work on our new title at Berzerk Studio, then found this game. Played all day instead. Really good job !

A pretty good Risk clone. The AI is quite clever which is nice to see. The only thing I don't like is the simultaneous turns, it's an interesting twist on Risk but it means romping through poorly defended enemy land with a surprise large army is impossible.

Adding to my comment. I think the allied teams should be more clear. Maybe similar colours for the same alliance (Dark blue, light blue). Because it's really important. You need to make sure the other alliances are fighting each other or else you have no chance.

I don't understand: Level 5 (the 'crazy' one), at the start it says '2 factions are fighting for world dominance...' or something.
But there are many factions ???

A great game, though when I save it doesn't save to my profile, so when I switch computers I have to start from the top. Still, challenging and engrossing.
