Overview

What ABG knows about this game

This 40th anniversary collector's edition was published in 1999 to mark the fortieth anniversary of the original game of Risk. Parker Bros describe it as a "deluxe" anniversary edition. It includes a redrawn world map and each gameboard carries a unique number denoting the "limited edition" status of each set. The "battle dice" are a special edition and the armies are die cast miniatures, each army being provided with a drawstring pouch for storage. Each set carries a special certificate of authenticity and there is little doubt that many sets have been purchased as collectors' items rather than for ordinary play.
