Risk is the longest lasting game ever. Main objective to Annihilate your opponents and take over the world. When your down to your last land and only have 5 army members left, you fight till the end and defend your land no matter how badly your surrounded. Annihilation is all that is left when your as bad off as you are in my picture. I don't think I will ever play Risk again with my husband, he's just to good at it.

Shows up very dark on my screen compared to other shots. Interesting idea, but the blue guys lack distinction.
