Risk : Adding drinking to classic board game series

Sorry for missing last week but I has in Nashville over the weekend and it was Thanksgiving on Thursday so I took a week off from the series. Back at it again and this week we are taking on a true classic that ends friendships. Risk.

I am assuming everyone plays world domination and not the complete the mission cards, not that the rules for the most part couldn't be applied to that version. Now to the good part:


The first one is obvious: All other players take a drink when a player starts a turn with a continent. (option 2 all other players take a drink equal to half the number of units the player gets for the continent)

Blue player has taken North America, and held it to start of his turn so all players would take 2.5 drinks 

Player takes a drink when they lose a continent:

Both players take a drink when 4 dice are tied.

All players take a drink for a snake eyes roll;

Attacking player drinks when he loses battle when he has 4 unit advantage;

Take a drink when you feel like the other players are teaming up on you;

Everyone take a drink anytime someone calls a player a coward;

Once during your turn you can challenge a player to shotgun challenge. If they decline they must remove 5 units of there choice from the board, if they accept and win the challenging player has to remove 4 units of their choice, if the challenging player wins they get to remove 3 units from the losing players from the board.

Any other player may participate in the shotgun challenge and remove 1 unit from each player they beat but lose one unit for each player they are defeated by. All these pieces are removed by the player whose units are being removed.

When a player plays a set players drink based on below:
Mixed set- all players drink


Set of infantry cards player to the right drinks


Set of Calvary cards player to the left drinks

Set of artillery cards player across and player drink

When a player is eliminated they have to finish their drink.

I feel like the black player was teamed up on well at least blue decided they didn't want the black player in the game. 

Well those are the rules I came up with. Hope you enjoy the game and as always drink responsibly.
