it is actually simple. send 2 armies at the ukraine, and 3 at the middle east on the first turn. with luck, you will get both territories. continue in a beeline for australia, and win in 6

This is an amazing game, the best one of it's kind so far!
But.. is it possible to beat the first level in 6 or fewer? The only possible way, as far as I can tell, is in 7

For people having trouble winning, don't play purely offensively or you will have trouble. I beat my kids in Risk every game because they attack too much. Never leave a single unit behind after an attack; you're begging to lose that country. Keep units spread around defensively and when you are offensive, killing off units is just as useful as winning a country.

It's a little frustrating when all the AI teams are attacking you from all sides, yet they let one AI leech off the back becoming an unbeatable opponent.

I put a comment on here IffBeaFate about warlight.net, the creators site. It is AMAZING. Maps galore, the settings on game play are wide and varied. By far the best type of this game type on the the internet by a million miles and multiplayer 1 v 1 2 v 2 3 v 3 , tournaments, custom games etc etc. ASTONISHINGLY GOOD and guess what.... It had 5 minus clicks within the day. I don't know if some people just click - because they don't like me, but check our warlight.net. Takes a bit of navigating at first but you'll be glad you did.

To beat the first level in 6 turns:
1. Put 5 armies in S. Europe. Attack the Middle East with 5 armies.
2. Put 4 armies in S. Europe and 1 in the Middle East. Attack Ukraine with 4 armies and India with all your Middle East armies.
3. Put 10 armies in India. Attack Siam with all your India armies.
4. Put 10 armies in Siam. Attack Indonesia with all your Siam armies.
5. Put 10 armies in Indonesia. Attack New Guinea and Western Australia, using 4 or 5 armies on the country with 1 army and the rest of your armies on the other.
6. Split your armies between New Guinea and Western Australia so that you have almost equal numbers in each. Attack Eastern Australia with all armies from both countries. Done!
If you lose two armies on the first turn, start over (you can actually still win in 6 turns, but it's less likely). If you fail to take over any country, start over. Steps 4 and 5 are the most likely to fail, but you should still get a gold star in 3 or 4 tries with this method.

I really hate how on the Europe challenge map you'll be running around conqueroring areas that only have 1 or 2 armies then you randomly you come across a place with over a hundred. It doesn't seem balanced to have them like that

the gold stars are highly dependant on luck, at least the first one is.
Otherwise nice game.
Any chance of redo buttons that affect only a certain phase?

It may just be me sucking at this game, but I can't get fewer than 14 turns in Level 1 to save my life. (In my defense, I got the gold star on Level 2 really easily).

everyday i fail on the Europe level swear i will never play this dumb game again, and then comeback the next day thinking "this time ill get it"

Sometimes it gets annoying when you can't see all of a pop-up because it is actually too big for the screen. Maybe I'm missing something or something is wrong with my system, but resizable pop-ups or at least smaller ones would be cool.

why is everyone hatin on this game, its awesome especially since its his first so there is a reason it isnt perfect anyways

A great game, but there is one problem: its annoying when you have to zoom in to click right bottom corner territory and to zoom out if you need to transfer armys from left to right of map.

this game gets 1/5 because you dont know which faction will move first (each territory turn is independent) - long story short - this game is all about luck which is is plain stupid...

Very good game.
One thing I'd change is that an area should not be able to receive additional troops/reinforcements if it is not adjacent to another area owned by the player.

Beating Europe / level 4 isn't impossible - I have done it in 23 turns (first successful attempt took 28 turns). I threw everything into France and focused on the bigger enemy armies instead of gaining territory and reinforced the allied territories (with 100+ armies) that were closest to the big enemies in the NE. The largest enemy army I + ally encountered was 110 and something. You need to go on the offensive and hit them with everything you've got.

Only 58 people out of at least 36,000 (based on 1st badge) who have played, have beaten "Insane." Yup that's insane alright and I cannot for the life of me get anywhere in "Crazy," fighting two teams of three players each makes me cry myself to sleep. I'll beat it though! muahahahahaha
