Can I give/trade Risk cards away? While not explicitly outlawed by the rules it is generally considered against the spirit of the rules to donate cards to another player, trade cards with other players or simply throw cards away. (You might want to do this if you have five cards but only a set of three cannons and are using the rules where a set's value depends on the type of cards in the set, see Q2.5).MegaMek comes in a zip file. You will need to unzip it using an appropriate unzipping utility. For example, you could use 7-Zip or WinZip on windows. For instructions on running MegaMek, see the readme.txt file, included in the main directory.The starters' bonus rating is the easy one! If a starter allows at least four earned runs, he normally becomes fatigued and switches to B grades with the next base runner allowed. But if he has a bonus inning (a raised number following his regular S rating) then he gets to stay on his A grades through the end of his bonus inning. Example: Joe Fastball is rated S64..
I've run out of pieces of my colour - can I have more reinforcements? I'm not aware of any version of the rules that states that the numbers of pieces of your colour is intended to restrict your maximum military size. However, some other games do indeed do this, and it could be an interesting house rule. It is probably worth checking all players have the same number of pieces available to make this fair - my own set doesn't have quite the same number of each colour, perhaps due to some being lost over the years.The missions make for a much faster game with more uncertainty -- the strongest looking player may be nowhere near winning.
Are there different versions of the rules? Yes, several. There have been a large number of different versions published in the U.K. alone. In the U.S. the rules have been copyrighted six times: 1959, 1963, 1975, 1980, 1990, and 1993. The 1963 edition refers to the 1959 version as "the original French rules". The U.S. rules have subtle -- and some not-so-subtle -- differences from edition to edition, and many of the rules that have been "standard" in the U.K. editions for some time have only recently made it over to the States.I like that I am low vision. I think GOD created me that way for a reason, and, I am not going to fight with HIM about why HE did.The starters' bonus rating is the easy one!

ARE THERE ANY GAMES INVOLVING THE CHARACTERS AND LOCALES FROM THE SERIES? Yes. Completed at the same time as the Myth Adventures board game, Mayfair Games Inc. also created a boardgame based on the Thieves' World series. Mayfair later released a "second edition" of this product, but it appears to be no longer offered for sale on their website. Additionally, Chaosium, Inc. released a package of Thieves' World role-playing source material, all compatible with several major RPG companies' systems. There were several later supplements to this package as well.The old U.K. rules state clearly that on each of your turns you may do one of two things, either reinforce or attack. If you choose not to attack then you get additional armies that you may allocate among your territories.
What kinds of games did the Vikings play? The Vikings played a lot of card and board games, especially during the winter. One of the games Vikings used to play is a board game called Hnefatafl which means "king's board or game" in Old Norse. This chess-like game of strategy simulated a Viking raid and the object of the game was to trap the King's piece.Missions are offered in some versions of the rules as an alternative way to win the game (see Q2.2). Missions have been available in European editions for a long time, but have only recently appeared as a variant in the U.S. Missions are used only if there are more than two players.
