Risk: Édition Napoléon (1999)

About this game

This very special version of Risk was published by Tilsit exclusively in France, as a numbered edition of 10 000 copies. Hasbro's signature is very discreet, appearing in the copyright line as "(c) Hasbro International Inc. Under license of 3D Licensing France". In addition to standard Risk rules, advanced rules introduce fortress sieges, generals, maritime blockades, naval combat, alliances and personalities (Napoléon, Wellington, Blücher...). An historical scenario reproduces the Napoleonic campaigns with fidelity. An extension was produced that introduces the Ottoman Empire as a sixth player.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 5.
• Rules load. At 2.3/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
