Hello everyone! 👋
I have a question regarding your strategies in Risk:
What do you usually do when an opponent places their Capital right in the middle of Australia or South America, just to block you and prevent you from controlling the continent?
Do you tend to ignore it and play around them, or do you try to put early pressure on that player to force them out?
I'm curious to hear your tactics and experiences! 😊
#How do you deal with "Suicide Caps" in Australia or South America?

If they're behind you, just eliminate their external positions so they cardblock themselves
(you're ignoring their cap but targeting them elsewhere)
Also if other players see you doing that, good players will help too - as it speeds up the game.

i always do it to help myself but never thought of it as speed i suppose. I would to force the inside player to be cardblocked ofc, but mainly to force them to put any more troops behind the other guys cap on the exterior if they play the long game, thats 2 players who will be stuck fighting eachother until death.
