I absolutely, positively and totally cannot play Risk. Not in the 'I'm no good at it' sense, because I really don't know whether I am or not. I'd probably be passable, but it just...

Two: Supply lines stretching that far? I shudder to think.
Three: Do the people mind that they've just been conquered by a foreign military power? Aren't they rebelling?

See? I just can't play this game.

Later, I watched K^L storm down from Kamchatka to Australia, and noted that not even the Japanese managed to do that.
