A Risk that didnt pay off
by playing risk at Til's hostel.
There were 5 of us, split into 2 teams. Elimination of any member from either team will mean defeat. Myself, Jeff and Kelvin were team mates. CK and Xiu yan were our enemies.
It was a close fight. Kelvin started war with CK and looked to be in good form early on, conquering most of his lands without breaking a sweat. I had secured South America early in the game. Jeff, as usual, was just about hanging on. Our strategy was simple - search and destroy CK..
Such simplicity proved to be the very reason for our downfall. We left Xiu yan all alone. Her army went from strength to strength as the other 4 of us were caught in a bloody warfare.
On her last turn, Xy exchanged risk card and gathered 19 soldiers! The next series of events was a pure massacre. While Jeff, Kelvin and I were praying for that miracle for Jeff to hang on, she was there, lauging loudly like a triumphant 21st century hitler, enjoying every moment of the demise of Jeff's troup. Eventually, the Jeff empire couldnt hang on.. We couldnt believe it, but we lost.
The rematch will be on hopefully soon. I sense revenge, and bloodshed.
