Page 2 - [Risk] Judge script bugfixes

Hi xs0,


Well, when there are 4 players around, 10 turns only give 2 chances of attacking for half the players.
Given a scenery where 2 players are enforcing little positions (say Oceania) to prevent attacks, and the other 2 have spent troops in conquering and fighting, it is very likely that one who wants to attack would need to wait 2 rounds cause targets have more troops in exposed lands (say Siam)...

With the scripts you provide, #1 and #2 usually tend to have only 1 land with all troops (that is (21 + 3*turns) for script #2). It happened to me when I tested new judging that a draw came in. My simple 'Blitz' script had beaten script #3 but didn't know how to attack an isolated land with 60 soldiers, and another one with 43, when my biggest force was of 18 soldiers... Well I admit my Blitz is rather dumb... but #1 and #2 are obvious and yet they got a draw.

Anyway, that gives place to another strategy: to try to draw when you are being overhelmed. That's fine for me.

Nope, it's 10 turns per player, so each gets 10 chances for attacking... And perhaps you shouldn't let a player build a 60-soldier army - if it wasn't so passive, it would probably kick your b*tt

OK, 10 turns for each player is very good. Yeah, my Blitzy is very lame... I hope to have the time to make a good script.

Anyway, what can I do if other player puts all troops in a land from start? If you attack it at first you'll suffer more losses. If you employ your forces in conquest efforts, it will take a while until you benefit from it...

Hmm, this is getting slightly off-topic
