Well, even us Kiwis will admit we are not that much of risk to the rest of the world, so, fair enough on this one.

Mind you, when we get together with the Aussies, look out.

I do enjoy that Ukraine has taken a massive bite out of Russia though (and the rest of Easter Europe too obviously but more so Russia)

It's inaccurate in numerous ways, but tbf, most of the risk map kinda is

Oh I know - Risk is one of my favourite board games because it combines strategy with maps (and most of the maps are always inaccurate in some way lol). The Ukraine territory on the classic map has always cracked me up though

Has it really always been like that? I’ve never played Risk so when I saw this I assumed it used to be called “Eastern Europe” or something similar, and that they recently renamed it to show support

It’s always been “Ukraine”

We've never been on the risk board :( owned two different versions in my life and seen three other versions and we haven't been on any of them 😂

I've seen it as a variant in a computer version. Counted as part of Oceania, connected to Eastern Australia and Argentina.

People that "camp" in Australia cause me to suicide both of us. Not happening. Not on my watch. You WILL participate, mofucka.
