Re: [risk] defending vs attacking?

[Richard Rognlie <rrognlie@gamerz.net>]

There is currently no difference in attack vs. defense, but
*should* their be?  In classic Risk[tm], attacker can roll up to
3 dice, defender up to 2.  high die matched with high die.  Ties
go to the defender.  So there is a slight edge to the defender for
each die they throw.

Perhaps Attacker v (1.125 * Defender)?  

C'mon people!  I'm throwing ideas out, but getting no responses 
here!  8^/
