My mom now has a brute called Mom Thing. She kicked both my brutes' asses.As a good mother should. That will teach you to do your chores instead of playing video games.

Sean, do not, under any circumstance, let ND get a membership
I've known about the site since I did Toy Story The Musical. The Music Director on that show played a lot. I do keep meaning to check it out.
I'm with BT in many way regarding Risk though, I have a hard time considering it a real strategy game.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Okay, I really don't think it's a fair fight when the other guy has a bear and a dog on his side. Booooo. (Click to watch me get pummeled.)

I just joined too. Wait for it... OmnisAudis. Yup, it works. At least we are consistent.
So? Should we start a game with the three (more if other Buffistas join) of us?

move out and draw fire
huh. Except for the fact that I don't have any time and rarely have any internets, I'd join.
I have a weird relationship with Risk. I haven't lost a game in 20 years (including one in which the other 5 players formed a bloc against me), but I don't think it's much of a strategy game.
At least not on the table; last time I won, I didn't hold Australia, and in fact launched my campaign by starting a land war in Asia. But the other players were so intent on picking each other off that it didn't matter...so if my strategy is "be the only girl at the table" then yeah, it's a strategy game.
I don't love Risk 2210 (disclaimer: I've only played it thrice). It's all about the card draws. The pieces are cool though.
My best favorite strategy game remains Dune.

My complaint with Risk is that it is usually quickly obvious who is going to win and yet the game goes on forever.
LotR Risk solves much of the time problem. I have yet to play an even game with two good and two evil players. We tried to play one game night, but quickly realized that Matilda was not having any of it and thought the pieces were far too shiny to resist.
One thing I love about Acquire is that it is a good mix of luck and strategy and you often don't know who has won until you count money at the end.
