I prefer the original version to the later editions as the map and box art are far nicer. There are also some advanced rules you can download from boardgamegeek which are interesting.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />DCDavid Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-90657211728089284812018-08-07T23:33:56.342+01:002018-08-07T23:33:56.342+01:00This is a lovely bit of nostalgia; I too had Campa...This is a lovely bit of nostalgia; I too had Campaign, and played it to death, mostly solo, as a child. I must have tweaked the rules to allow defeated armies to be pressed into service by their conquerors, with the result that Spain ( of all countries! ) overran Europe at least once.. All I have left of it is a pair of battered dice, which I wouldn't part with. Maybe I will have to track down a set..david in suffolkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02945969485547328039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-64824844296673332902018-08-02T08:52:38.140+01:002018-08-02T08:52:38.140+01:00Hi Prince Lupus,

It is a great game to play with four players.<br /><br />I used to play Risk but tend to view it these days as a source of gaming material - especially figures - and again, I often see various versions at boot sales. My recent blog post about Risk: Europe (the Medieval edition) being a case in point.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />DCDavid Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-22844615753205556232018-08-01T17:11:35.183+01:002018-08-01T17:11:35.183+01:00Thanks for that, loved this game in my teens, but ...Thanks for that, loved this game in my teens, but sadly long gone.
