Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for October 09, 2021

Just because it’s war, doesn’t mean you can’t have a little fun with it.

“Gentlemen! You can’t fight in here…this is the War Room!

I loved Risk. Still do actually. Problem with it though is that a game can last for days…well, with the guys I used to play it with anyway.

Put the lancers in the front and the archers in the back.

Short man? War games? Reminds me of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yAj3a6eBAyg

Obviously having delusions of success. Or maybe just non-cognitive delusions.

Didn’t Shakespeare say, the plays the thing and all the world’s a stage and we are merely players. (Gosh he’s more clairvoyant than Nostradamus.)

Risk?

And that’s why they don’t win wars…because they have an Id-iot in charge!

Looks familiar…

“No, sir, I didn’t see you playing with your dolls again!”

Reminds me of a recent high ranking political figure who should never have even gotten close to the code to the brief case.

Fink is a jinx!

Let him play, Rodney. You’d warn the Huns beforehand about his attack plans anyways.

It would be cool to see a big Hollywood war room with all the Generals and bigwigs gathered around a game of Risk. 4 kids playing for the domination of the real world.

With Rodney as your leader? Good luck!

I think the ole “Finkster” is missing the point here.

It looks like they want to invade Greenland. Go for it.

He still needs to roll the dice to determine causalities.

Hmm he might come up with something game changing

I’ll restrain myself comparing to a recent Pentagon military event.

The fink is seeing something more than the two stooges. No wonder he rules the kingdom.

Played a lot of risk in college too. Now I play it occasionally on my kindle. Even on my expert mode the computer still isn’t very ruthless.
