    I often don't win games of Risk, but I'm really good at like advising people on how to win which helps me... Basically we'll be playing Risk and if I ever see an opportunity I'll point out "This player is the strongest and if we don't start fighting them they're going to win" or "You should probably attack this other player and stop them from getting to continent bonus" or "You and me need to stop fighting and work together or else that player is just going to beat you after you beat me"... And I basically give people advice which is honestly genuinely good EXCEPT when it would be to my detriment to advise them... So essentially I am very much the person who focuses on maintaining the balance of power which I think is a good strategy because here is how Risk goes:
    1. One player emerges from the beginning really scary.
    2. Naturally the other players see this and beat up that person.
    3. Someone among those players replaces the scary player as the new scary player.
    4. Eventually a scary player gets ignored and wins the game.
    As a result, I don't want to allow anyone but me to be the scary player in the game and when I become that and the power is unbalanced in my favor then I want to try and get other people to listen to my advice which maybe is good advice in some ways, but is also misdirecting them from me... Really I just overthink this game/the game theory and whenever I play it it never seems to work out...
    But I'm still positive from observing MANY Risk games (basically playing it against myself a bunch before going to high school on a lot of days)t seems like a lot of the time the whole game is about focusing on 2 things... 1. Who is the most powerful. 2. Who is going to be the most powerful after they are destroyed. This can mean making an alliance against the main threat, then breaking that alliance if you are not the one benefiting from it the most. Possibly even then allying with the player who was just a moment ago very threatening... Otherwise you eliminate the old big threat and then just lose to the new one you helped establish...
    Though I feel like it's more difficult when the other players aren't thinking for themselves much about what is strategic and they are more basing their relations on things like "Well, this person hasn't really attacked me much this game, so I'm not gunna really focus on them." Meanwhile I'm just like "Betray them! You know you want to! You could totally take out the Alaskans with your Siberian army! Do it before they push through the Ukraine and into Asia!"

    28:06... Honestly between this version and Risk Factions and this free to play version I would rather spend the $10 on Factions which has both the classic map but also maps where controlling certain points gives different bonuses like the ability to flood a certain area wiping out most the units, or the ability to launch a nuke... So basically has the original version of the board game plus alternate modes as well. It has somewhat mixed reviews because aparently a handful of people had freezing and crashing issues, I never ran into those issues but that's the one downside to PC gaming is because of all the different hardware and drivers and what not configurations a game may run perfectly for one person but crash every 30 seconds for the next person over.
