i'd like to see an optional rule where you don't get to place troops the first turn.
does that sound like anything that anyone else would liek to see?
optional rule
also... what about instead of having to pick all the territories until they're taken, and THEN being able to fortify territories... what if you could just take one territory and load it with all the troops? i know thats not how Risk(TM) does it... but i think it would be neat 
start the game with some neutral territories...
