Family get together this weekend and having not played this in over 20 years, I wanted to watch some refresher videos. Again, I have not played in well over 20 years and yet I spent much of this video going, "Really? I don't remember that. That doesn't sound right. Did they change the rules? That's not how I remember it"... and after watching several other videos I can confirm that the instructions in this video contradict every other source I have seen in significant and sometimes game-changing ways. I would recommend everyone to go back to your search results and pick the next video down the list. In my experience, it will have the more accurate rules and instructions.
1:30 Even if a player has less than 9 territories they must always receive three troops. Before playing the first turn each player takes they’re remaking troops designated by the amount of players and take turns placing them on territories they already control. 2:02 The turn goes in a certain order. First place troops, then attack, then maneuver. You may pass. If choosing to pass you do not attack but may maneuver, if you maneuver first you may not attack. Very good explanation on the battle however. Love the graphics!
Plz tell me during a battle do cavalry and artillery have more health than the regular infantry or what? Really want to get into the game but don’t understand that aspect of it
@@bvidz7447 Cavalery = 5 infantery. Canon = 10 Infantery. Thats all. Its to have less pieces on the board when you have a lot of troups. You can only attack with 3 troops max. So if you attack with a canon and the defender uses 2 troops and you loose the attack, the canon becomes a cavalery and 3 infantery.
I think these instructions are incomplete. Yes, you count the number of territories you have and divide that number by 3 (from 1:30 in video), but you get a minimum of at least three troops, no matter if it would equal below that. There's a minimum according to my 1999 manual and another "how to play" risk video I just watched.
That was the best explanation? Really? He didn't even explain how maneuvering works, one of the fundamental elements in the game. You cannot possibly know how to play the game properly after watching this video, I guarantee you that.
That's very kind but incorrect. The rules explained in this video are wrong or incomplete in a few areas. Also, if you still don't get it, it's not a good explanation.
@@chrismullaney9042 That last part isn't always true; if Terence Tao explained harmonic analysis to a baby and the baby doesn't understand it, it isn't his fault; it is the baby's fault.
Question : In your turn to role the dice.. Count the territories and divided by 3 and if you have continent will give troops.. On my second turn will i get troops. On my third turn will count territories divided by 3 and get troops... (I m not talking about matching 3 Risk cards and getting troops)
Can someone PLEASE comment. I’ve been playing risk for so long and I still don’t get it HOW TO ATTACK WITH CAVALRY AND ARTILLERY it’s so confusing. I only get how to attack with the 1 unit troops
Calvary is worth 5, artillery is worth 10- you just have to do the math in your head or trade for 5 or 10 men if you’re about to attack to make it easier to keep track of! So using one artillery would be like using 10 single troops to attack! The number would just go down if you lose troops and you’d need to trade it for men- for example: you’re using artillery and you roll 2 dice, you lose both against the defender- that means you have 8 now. So you could take off the artillery and trade it for 8 men, or trade it for 1 Calvary (worth 5) plus 3 men.
1)Do we use the horses & canons instead of troops for saving space only?? 2)A horce can attack to a trooper or only to another horse??,if yes does horse got an advantage?if the horse loses to a trooper do I lose the “whole” horse?? 3)If I attack with 3 troopers to a land that have 2 troopers, the defender must put both of the troopers to defend the land or he can choose? if you choose to play Defence with one trooper he remaining with 1 trooper (that i cannot attack) HOW I WILL GET THE LAND??😂 Thanks in advance
When I learn a game I tend to read the rule book and then I try to find a "how to" video. This is not how I interpreted the rules. I did not see any mention of how many armies you start with in my rules, only that jokers are taken out of the deck and dealt out as even as possible. Those cards dictate starting army placement. Cards get shuffled again once all armies are placed with the jokers and that make the draw deck. 1 movement action is allowed only after all the players attacks have performed. *Attacking armies that capture a territory must move at least the number of armies equal to the dice they threw but must also leave 1 army where they attacked from (I think, I was hoping this video could verify that but there's too many differences in our interpretations that I'm going to have to find a different video)
So one of the confusion I have is why does the video game version Risk Global Domination allow you to fortify to any of your bordering countries, say you can fortify from Australia to South America for example but by the board game rules you can only fortify by bordering countries? The video game version makes no sense.
Me and two other friends play this , but every time they play they always form alliance between each other and totally destroy me , I have not won a single game till now because of this , they always team up destroy and then play with each other , can u guys pls give me tips what to do then .
if you’re defending you have a maximum of 2 dice, you can chose how many you use, if you’re defending with one troop use one dice, if you’re defending with two, you use two dice… if you’re attacking with for example 4 soldiers than u can use 3 dice, if you attack with 3 soldiers you use 2 dice and so on if the attacker and defender draw, the defender wins if the attacker gets higher the attacker wins if the defender gets higher the attacker loses
What happens when my opponent who’s attacking me has only one troop left in the attack; and i only have 1 troop left to defend. We roll the die and we both win. What happens?!?!
On the game on steam of risk lol u have to place all troops on board before u can attack lol 🤣 but this might be a deferent way I prefer the steam verson ofbrisk then the board game lol
I’ve been playing risk since I was 9. Watched this to refresh memory and now I’m confused af. Your wrong instructions made me remember the right ones.
yesss
Can u tell me if the cavalry and artillery have more health during a battle or not?
R u sure cus my manual says the same thing as this guy lol.

Yes I agree with you

i have a doubt
when an enemy occupies my territory, then the troops i placed in that territory is considered dead or can be used again
@@ExperiMental69 well if they occupie it means they killed all yours troops? So they are dead

Lots of rules explained here are wrong and not accurate to the rules
Explain nerd
@@sarahfatima2872 for one, you can only move after an attack
@@sarahfatima2872 🤣🤣🤣
Can someone tell me how many troops to die again? I feel I get that part wrong the entire time
This is the fast way of paying the game
I thought you could move as many soldiers you want as long as there is one left in the territory, not that you can only move once per turn?
i.am.confused

Most underrated comment.
Aged badly
Ukraine is a country in Risk? I thought it was a part of west Russia

Best explanation out there. Very informative.
nah
risk remains confusing to me >,<
but i love this video, fantastic explanation!
This is a AMAZING tutorial
Really good but instead of “move” it’s fortify.
Kramer and Newman brought me here
The Ukraine is strong
Thank you very much, this helped a lot.
This is not the right way omg

Partially wrong. If your number of territories divided by three is still less than 3, you still automatically get three infantry by default.
2:18 I've watched this part over and over, and still don't understand, how many dice to use.
if you’re defending you have a maximum of 2 dice, you can chose how many you use, if you’re defending with one troop use one dice, if you’re defending with two, you use two dice…
if you’re attacking with for example 4 soldiers than u can use 3 dice, if you attack with 3 soldiers you use 2 dice and so on
if the attacker and defender draw, the defender wins
if the attacker gets higher the attacker wins
if the defender gets higher the attacker loses

I prefer Risiko in italy
So when u say remove 5 troops for every person who plays what exactly does that look like
2=40 if two becomes three it is now 3=35 for every player each army is smaller by five
Five soldiers or one horse. It's up to you

too hard
very confusing explanation bro, especially for the first time players.

You Totally Forgot the Mission Cards from this Game or how would you know where to put your Extra Troops!!!
mission cards are only for Mission Risk, it’s a different version
