Re: [risk] Fogs of War

Simultaneous Risk is my attempt to merge Risk and Diplomacy.

How to get "support" included in this variant is a good question...

1.  How to denote "support" the defense of a region or an attack 
    on a region.  If I just say "egy 4 sup mid"  is that support
    the defender or an agressor?  And if an agressor, which one?

2.  What are the penalties of support?   You support xyz.  And
    he loses.  You lose the support armies, right?   But what if
    you *win*, the your "team" loses X armies in the battle.

    We need to be unambiguous in our resolution of that.

3.  If you are performing a support action, and are attacked, you
    "cut the support" of that other region, and stay behind, right?

1 and 3. are the easiest to resolve.  2 gets sticky.
