College Football Risk - Day 3

Yesterday wasn't the most pleasant turn for us. We're down to 5 territories after having a few losses due to bad RNG. However, our position is not as dire as it may seem. The first few days of the game are about developing allies and a longterm plan of attack. We are currently in the process of executing both of these things and believe the picture will become much more clear in the coming days. In the meantime, we NEED increased participation from everyone on here. We dropped to the third largest team last night with Ohio State and Georgia Tech jumping ahead of us. Please consider playing if you typically read these posts to follow the progress of the map, but don't participate. It takes about 1 minute total to sign in to your reddit account, receive an assignment on https://michigancfbrisk.com/ , and make a move on https://collegefootballrisk.com/ .

College Football Risk is officially back! Some of you may remember this game from the spring/summer of 2018. It has been brought back as an independently run game separate from the /r/cfb subreddit. A brief description of how the game works is below for those that aren’t familiar. For those that are familiar, we strongly encourage the use of the assignment system on Michigancfbrisk.com.

What is College Football Risk?

College Football Risk is a continuation of a popular CFB Risk game run by r/CFB in the Spring and Summer of 2018. It is an MMO-style game where college football fanbases compete for control of a fictionalized map of the United States. The goal is to control as much territory as possible for ultimate domination of the map.

How Does the Game Work?

On turn 1, each team starts with their home territory. It is up to each team to recruit players and coordinate moves. You can choose to defend any territory that your team currently holds or attack any adjacent territory. A "roll" happens each evening at 11 PM EST to calculate which teams have won which territories that turn based on the moves that were made by individual players. The ultimate goal is to conquer as much of the map as possible for your team. There are a number of different ways to do this, such as through recruiting players in sheer numbers or forming alliances with other teams.
