Would you enlist in a war against China/N.Korea?

@Cmdr:

Interesting points.

I do notice that sea zones, at varying differences between games, seem to be either more or less friendly than land zones can be when determining flight ranges.

I think, in regards to Europe, the map lines up pretty well with the rules (in the current rendition of the game).  I think in classic it does not line up as well.  Just my two copper pieces…

Then the US figs and Tac Bombers should get to move 6 after T5 or 6

Just like to say that there is a Star Wars “Risk” edition.
Perhaps I could swap some FW190 from my AA1941 to Tie Fighters?

@empireman:

What are your thoughts if the Cold war went to WW3

that it would not be a possibility…it would be rather a szenario were more likely many Nations will fight against each other and not only two superpowers playing a hidden game of chess…Many peoples think the world ist at peace and the circumstance, that the ongoing events do not occur in their terretory make ´em belief that it is not a major problem equal to a war, but the fight is allready on. it´s simillar to the time of 1914, all it needs is a spark in the right spot!..look arround, there is so much hate … keep the LOVE

I agree, got a little “out there” in a hurry.

But for the time period, just a couple years after Star Trek went off the air, it was so technically superior…
And let’s face it, those Eagles were pretty sweet :-)

And yes, Maya the “alien waif” was a true hottie :-)  Fine, I’ll date myself :-P

It’s a documentary about Robert McNamara. Very good.

5.56 weighs 12g and 7.62x51 weighs 24. The person with the 5.56 fires with 3 round burst, the person with the 7.62 fires semi-auto. 3 shots=1 kill or 1 shot = 1 kill? Which is better? 36g or 24g? A 30 round 5.56 will get you ten pulls of the trigger if set on 3 round burst (the 3 round burst compensates for the smallness of the round. A 20 round 7.62 will give you 20 pulls.

We feed Iraqis, We feed N. Koreans, we have a history of giving food to our enemies (like the Taliban)

Question, I don’t know the answer. Is China’s Government Elected?

Yes, most of the positions in the government are based on election, though often these elections are rigged. There hasn’t been once been a successful and smooth transfer of power (usually ending in bloody coups) since it went communist

China is experiencing more economic growth because it has become a combination of Communism and Capitalism.

I wouldn’t exactly call it communist. More like socialist.
