So as Matt said,these're the most interesting things of this game.Diplomacy and negotiation become much important then the traditional Risk game.
You hardly rebel against the empire alone,or you get crushed by the empire mostly;But if you're able to persuade other players to against the empire together,then you have strong backup in overthrowing the empire.
As the side of empire,you can exploit powerful force to threaten your sub not to rebel,or even instigate them to attack another regimes for you to diverting their attentions.Once you learn how to secure your sub's loyalty well,then you can maintain your empire without much troubles.
These elements're enough to create enormous political tension internally,which doesn't appear in traditional Risk game.That's why it's so interesting. |
