A friend of mine set up some rules for combining Risk with Monopoly, which he called "Military Industrial Complex." I don't remember the particulars, but the basic idea was that you could use the money you made in Monopoly to buy armies for Risk, or dismantle some armies to get cash. I never got around to playing it with him, but I always thought that it was a good idea and would be a lot of fun. It seems it would be best played with teams, so you would need a fair amount of people for a good game. "Hello,hello,hello. Jim Drennan What's all this then?"

The best variant of risk that i've ever played (and still play) is "drink risk". Basically, you take a large drink of beer (or other beverage) whenever you conquer a country. It changes the strategy alot, since you're more concerned with drinking than winning (or esle you wouldn't play this variant) eric holtman
