Once someone told me that the family is not chosen, but the friends do. With time I have been able to understand this. When a friend is real he becomes a brother, brother of another mother (as we say in Venezuela).

It is with friends that we share a lot of the best moments and many of them is while you are playing something, it can be a video game, a simple card game or board game. Whatever method you use to enjoy in a group there is always a factor that unites them all or separates them ... these are my most challenging gaming moments...

This is one of the best board games I could play after Clue. Risk is the game where you must conquer the whole world simulating that you are the leader of a small army which is expanding as the game progresses.

When my friends were still in Venezuela one of our hobbies was playing Risk. But we did it in a peculiar way, we really pretended that we belonged to some kind of army. Thanks to the fact that one of the members has many hats, we used them to give life to our characters. It was like playing D&D

What's so challenging about playing with friends?

You wonder what's so challenging about playing with friends? The answer is very simple. Just think: you are competing against your friend in a game where all players really want victory. Believe me friend reader, it is not easy to compete against friends, but that makes the battle more exciting.

Some of them are steemians like the one in the left @takeru255 those in the back whit Hilfiger T-shirt @keepingtarotreal beside him my brother @pangahg and myself @wisejg in the right corner.

Accompanied by some drinks and snacks our games lasted around 2 to 3 hours. And it is that the hours pass very fast when you are fully involved in character. The exciting thing about the game is that you must think every movement, every action generates a reaction. It is indispensable to have allies right here when the real dispute begins.

Word of honor

Beyond destroying your enemies, each conqueror has to fulfill an individual objective. Maintaining alliances for a long time becomes harmful and those who don't consider this detail need to break their word. It is exciting the fights that can be generated when a player breaches an agreement. It is quite a challenge to survive the fury of other players when all the honor has been lost.

Complete your goal: Conqueror or conquered

The climax comes when we face a rival, it may be the goal or it is only a hindrance in the journey to victory. Whatever the case these battles are the most epic all players expect an outcome that benefits their interests while those who face only seek to define who will stay that part of the world ...

the final bout

If luck smiles at you and all your movements served to corral another player then you have known how to play with such determination that your enemies and allies ignored your true intentions. It is the deception feat and in games like this one can become a challenge.
