  • I agree with the AI who is (maybe not) cheating. Spent time in compare and AI is wining over 80% of the time while the player losing over 60% of the time. This make the game uninteresting. That's sad because it could be very nice. - Correct this (big) problem. - Put more fight options like artillery or soldiers, like higher position gives more attack points, like army who settle-block-bunker (cost one turn) get defense points. Waiting for update
  • Very good project and its great that its still supported by yura. But it needs more support and a lot of work and stuff to fix. Important informations are missing, bugs and an outdated basic make it hard to create maps for this.

    please report the bugs, use the instructions here to make maps: http://domination.sf.net/makemaps.shtml it should not be hard, you should be able to make a map in a few minutes.
  • I'm hooked on the Roman Empire 400 AD board, self-playing over and over again, perhaps because I read Roman History from beginning to end. I have only two suggestions on Statistics. One is that it would be nice to walk through a game again, much as you might a Chess game. Another is that the Statistics box could have number of Armies, etc on the Y axis placed on the right side instead of the left, so you don't have to carefully eye how many is being registered on the histogram all the way over to the left side of the graph. Or perhaps put the numbers on both sides, so you can see what the game started with. Fantastic project! Have fun!
  • This game makes me mad with rage. It's a pity because the game is funny in multiplayer mode, but in single player mode the AI cheats too much. The game experience is totally infuriating in single player mode, and this comes from an expert Risk player, that wins tournaments against humans in real life. Sadly, I've the impression that the programmer made the AI cheats attempting to challenge more the player. But an expert risk player notices all the "impossible " things that the AI does, like having always far better dice stats than the player in the long run (the in game graph statistics are not really useful, but I did mine manually), having reinforcements coming from nowhere, collecting cards (like it should be according to the original risk rules) while the player is unfairly forced to play immediately every combination he gets. Also, all the AI players immediately attack the human player whenever he conquers a continent, and this is effectively good and challenging. But the fact is that they (they AI players) do that only versus the human players, while they absolutely don't act in the same way with each other. When an AI players conquers a continent, he is left practically undisturbed by the other AIs. Infuriating cheaters that they are.

    the ai does not cheat, the ai follows all the same rules as the human players have to, in fact, the engine of the game does not know if it is an AI player or human player that is playing.
  • Very exciting game among simple ones. Written in Java is both advantage and disadvantage. Hope you consider to port this game to Qt framework. Nevertheless, the game itself is very nice.
  • Nice implementation of the board game

  • Excellent project - just played a 4 player offline game using the classic map and it worked flawlessly.
  • Excellent software. A lot of hard work has been put into this. I've been playing it for years now on both Windows and Android. Very stable on both platforms. I believe it is by far the best Risk type game out there. And it's lots of fun. Thanks everyone!. A wishlist... a) include the names of countries on the cards b) a user blacklist on the local machine that screens out online players c) permanent nicknames - Get rid of Guestxxxxx nicknames d) in online lobby - show Wins/ Losses/Resignations and the ability for the creator of the game to reject a player. Some players resign right after starting a game or delay a game so much as it ruins it for other players. This would allow the online game creator (host) to reject these people. Again thank you for all the work. Much appreciated!
  • I love this project! It has many active players, and it has many features, such as user generated maps, and even AI :D Well done!
  • Amazing game, perfect Risk clone, with smart computer players. For those that say cards are overpowered, there are settings which allow you to change the card power from increasing to fixed. Good install experience, used on Android too, very fun. I like the statistics too. Great user created maps too.

  • This game is fine at first. However soon the cards become overpowered and the game just turns into a casino bar. Would play this game if they make it an option to play without stupid cards.

    you can use fixed cards set, then the troops you get do not go up. also you can open any map in the MapEditor and remove the cards, then save it and play it.
  • I have a machine I have been using without any virus problems for about three years. I installed domination at 1:54pm and i played a few games online and against the computer. by 8pm several of my software programs started crashing--namely windows live writer and ... i can't remember the other one that went haywire. anyway i went to uninstall domination and it wasn't visible in the control panel - uninstall programs menu. then i manually deleted the program files i could find. then i tried to run windows defender to scan my machine and it was turned off and refused to turn on. i installed comodo system cleaner and am trying to install antivir to do a scan of the computer. Before i did a fresh install of W7 a few years ago I was constantly battling a virus that was in my system. I am really sick of that I don't want to go back to that. The game was pretty nice but I wish I didn't install it.

    This game does not install anything other then the game itself, that is all open source, it does not install anything Operating System specific, I do not believe your computer problem was anything to do with this game.
  • Don't bother! Yet another game that uses "DICE ROLLS" to make up for AI. 84.5% of the time the AI wins the first roll. Every battle you make you will ALWAYS loose 3 dice to 2 many times. Once I attacked with 15 to 5 and lost 3 to 5. You will loose 2,4,6 and even 8,10 in a row many times before the AI looses one. I will continue my search for a risk like game, that has "real dice"

    the game is open source, you can see the code, and the dice do NOT know what kind of player they are rolling for, the code is for all to see: https://sourceforge.net/p/domination/code/HEAD/tree/Domination/src/net/yura/domination/engine/core/RiskGame.java#l2431
  • They tried to update the game but wound up messing everything up. A Lot of players cannot even log on, players who support the by buying crystals cannot log on with no response from Plarium staff just a bunch of bull. Still like it.
