One World Dominion An Unauthorized Expansion

IntroductionOne World Dominion introduces 44 new terri-tory cards that replace the standard RISK®

cards. Except when superseded by these rulesor by text on the new cards, follow the stan-dard rules of play for RISK.

Card PlayTurning in Card Sets

You may turn in a set of cards for bonus armiesas follows:

Card Set Bonus Armies3 Artillery 6 Armies3 Infantry 9 Armies3 Helicopters 12 Armies1 of Each 9 Armies

In this expansion, the number of armies youreceive for a given card set is fixed; it doesnot grow based on the number of sets turnedin previously.

If 1 or more of the cards in a set name areasyou control, you may place 2 additional armiesin each of those areas.

When you turn in a set of cards for bonusarmies, you may not perform the action statedon any of the cards in the set. You may onlyperform the action stated on a card when youplay that card singly.

Playing Cards Singly

To perform the action stated on a card, play itby itself. Announce the action you are takingand then discard the card. For example, if youhold the Orbital Laser card and wish to play it,show the card to the other players, announcewhich army you are vaporizing, and then placethe Orbital Laser card in the discard pile.

When to Play a Card

In the upper right-hand corner of each cardyou will find a letter code that designates whenthe card may be played:

(A) While you are attacking(D) While you are defending during another

player’s turn(F) While you are making your free move(N) When an opponent plays a card against you(P) While you are placing new armies at the

beginning of your turn(S) Special—read the instructions on the card

A card that has more than 1 letter code may beplayed during any of the phases indicated bythose letters. You may play a card only duringits designated phase, and you may play only 1card per phase. During another player’s turn,you may play only 1 (S) and 1 (D) card.

Additional Armies

When you play a single card that names an areayou control, you may immediately place 2 ad-ditional armies in that area—no matter whoseturn it is or what part of the turn you are on.

Hand Limit

If you start your turn with 5 or more cards, youmust reduce the number of cards in your hand to4 or less. So if you have exactly 5 cards, youmay play 1 (P) card to reduce your hand to 4cards.

You may turn in a set and play a (P) card whenyou are placing armies at the beginning of yourturn. However, the (P) card you play cannotbe part of the set you turn in.

2


Negating Cards

A negating card states that it may be used tonegate another card or cards. If you play acard to negate another card, discard both cardsimmediately. Unless stated otherwise, neithercard has any further effect.

If the negating card you play names an areayou control, you receive 2 additional armies inthat area. The player of the negated card doesnot receive 2 additional armies.

You must play a negating card immediatelyafter the card you want to negate. Once theaction stated on a card has been completed, itis too late to negate that card.

Unless the negating card states otherwise, youcan only negate a card that is played againstyou or an area you control. A negating cardcan not itself be negated.

Trading and Capturing Cards

You may not trade cards with or give cards toanother player unless he or she plays the In-formant card against you or captures your lastremaining area. If you go out of the game forany reason other than an opponent capturingyour last remaining area, you must place yourcards in the discard pile.

Special TermsArea and Sea Lane

To save room on the cards, the word area isused instead of territory. The term sea lanerefers to the dashed or double lines that con-nect 2 areas across an ocean.

One Game Turn

When a card states that its influence lasts for 1game turn, place that card in front of the playerwhose turn it is when the card is played. Then,at the beginning of that player’s next turn, re-move the card to indicate that it is no longer ineffect.

Committed Attack

If a card requires you to make a committedattack, before combat begins you must declarehow manyarmies you are attacking with. Oncecombat begins, you cannot voluntarily add orsubtract armies to or from the attack; you mustcontinue the attack until all opposing armiesor all committed armies are eliminated. Thenumber of armies you commit must be at least1 less than the number of armies in the areayou are attacking out of.

Randomly Chosen Area

The Mad Cow Disease, Mutant Horde, andNerve Gas cards call for an attack on a ran-domly chosen area that is adjacent to a targetarea. To choose the affected area, count offall the areas adjacent to the target area and roll1 die.

For example, if the Mutant Horde is attackingout of Kamchatka, you would count off“Alaska, 1; Japan, 2; Mongolia, 3; Irkutsk, 4;Yakutsk, 5”and roll a die. If the result matchesone of the numbers you counted off, the areawith that number is attacked. If the result doesnot match one of the numbers you counted off,continue rolling a die until you get a result thatdoes. In the previous example, if the result is6 you would continue to roll the die until theresult is 5 or less.

Involuntary Attack

The Mad Cow Disease and Provocateur cardsforce the armies in a target area to attack anadjacent area. During each round of an invol-untary attack, the attacker must roll the maxi-mum allowable number of dice. The attackcontinues until the attacker has only 1 armyleft or the defender is eliminated. If 8 or moreattacking armies capture an area, ½ of thearmies, rounded down, must move into thearea. If fewer than 8 armies capture an area,the number of armies equal to the number ofattack dice must move into that area.

The attacker may play 1 (A) card, and the de-fender may play 1 (D) card during an involun-tary attack. No one receives a card for invol-untarily capturing an area.

If rebels capture a new area due to an involun-tary attack, divide the 3 armies they receiveeach turn to make the number of armies in eacharea as equalas possible. To place an odd army,roll a die to randomly select a rebel area.

Special ResultsNeutral Players

Playing the Rebellion or Mutant Horde cardwill result in the creation of a new, neutralplayer. Use an unused army color or coins tomark neutral areas. The actions of rebels andmutants are automatic and are described ontheir cards.

Unless the card states otherwise, neutralplayers are affected by card play just as nor-mal players are. You are not required to elimi-nate neutral players to win the game.

If rebels capture a new area, divide the 3 armiesthey receive each turn to make the number ofarmies in each area as equal as possible. Toplace an odd army, roll a die to randomly se-lect a rebel area.

If a mutant horde captures a new area, theymove all of their armies into the area, leavingan empty area behind.

Empty Area

The result of a card action may leave an areaempty.

You do not receive an army bonus for a conti-nent that has an empty area. You may attackan emptyarea and capture it automatically. Forthe purpose of drawing a card, this counts ascapturing a area.

Opponents in the Same Area

If a card action results in your armies occupy-ing the same area as another player’s armies,all of your armies in the area must attack theopposing armies in the area; you cannot hold1 army back as is normally required. Also, allof your attacks against armies within the samearea must be resolved before, and indepen-dently of, any normal attacks you may makeduring your turn.

4


Card ErrataEbola

If the die roll is 4 or 5, the target area is af-fected only if it is on the randomly selectedcontinent.

Round Down

When you remove or replace ½ the armies in anarea, and there is an odd number, leave the extraarmy in the area.

Saboteur

You must play the Saboteur card against an-other player before he or she turns in a cardset for bonus armies. If your opponent hasalready turned in a set, it is too late to play theSaboteur.
