A request:

1. Make a multi-player, network enabled version of Risk.

2. Point me at the technologies I'll need to make it myself.

Currently, the only Risk in the market is called Lux Touch. As such, it's great -- but there's a lot of room for improvement. It only supports a single player vs computers, doesn't save game states, and only has the generic Risk map.

Lux Delux exists for both PC and iphone (Lux DLX). The PC version is multiplayer, networked, variable AIs, user generated maps. I think most of that's true for Lux DLX. You have to pay for it, but it is worth it if you're a risk player.

I must have missed that. I'll see how it is before embarking on my own quest :)

You'll need to be invited to a game to play, which I can do, but I dont really play much anymore.
