Risk Strategies, Scenario 3: Playing as South America

 

In this case you are playing as Red. This is the early stage of a 5 player game. Players have selected their continents and are ready to start the battle. Everyone is at risk. Unfortunately, Red was the last player and was left to choose South America. At this point in time, everyone has the same number of armies.

Situation analysis:

  • The Yellow player is a very experienced player, and looks at the long term scenario.

  • The Green player is new to the game, and may do mistakes later on (at least that's what you hope for).

  • The Blue player is an isolationist and so intends to grow slowly. 

  • The Brown player is aggressive and unpredictable. He is known to stab people on the back in previous games.

No one has any cards. What would be your overall strategy. What sort of tactics would you choose to survive in the short term. What sort of diplomacy or alliances would you like to have, given the profile of your opponents?

Discuss your solution given the range of moves that your opponents may take as it will have a huge impact on your subsequent decisions.
