@@danhelsing5131 I think they do. 22 points for a perfect game. First and second bounties for a player are 3 each, third bounty is worth 2, fourth and fifth bounties 1 point each. The zombies would have to count to make it work.
Black player here from the game. It was clear from pretty early on that Pete would win the game with all the bonuses he was holding. I considered taking the first continet that Pete ended up taking (2 territories for +4 per turn, with two blizzards in it), but decided against it due to the fact that Pete could have broken my bonus when he started his turn with +6 troops in Afriac. I was relatively slow in taking over continents, mostly because I didn't want draw too much attentio . In hindsight, that was my first, and probably biggest mistake this game. Putting a few troops on round 2 into the Turkey region and getting a take there, rather than trying to clear the British isles faster, was the second mistake. I had an ok relationship going with both blue and pink, with relatively unmilitarized borders while I expanded slowly into France. Blue broke me out of the blue (pun intended), but luckily I had a set to quickly retaliate and break his bonuses. Too bad I didn't have enough troops in that region to kill blue (I was also hoping that blue would reconsider attacking me after I didn't push him out completely from scandinavia. That was probably mistake number three. I was happy that Pete didn't break my bonus when he killed blue, and was considering to break or take scandinavia on my turn, but the zombies did that for me. After blue died, pink decided to suicide into me. I got lucky when pink attacked me as they opened up my biggest stack which allowed me to kill him. I gathered from Pete's behavior that he was letting me have second, so I stayed put in the corner. The zombie strike at the very end was hilarious, as I didn't expect it at all. Thanks Pete for trying to give me second, it was definitely noticed and appreciated!

GG bro. So you would say that it came out of the blue?!? Lol I'm sorry Toldi. If I had either placed a few more troops over there or rolled the small stack before the big stack we'd likely both have an additional two points. Looking forward to facing you again.

I probably watched 60-70% of your video backlog by now (mostly in the background while I do stuff and then I glance over when you make kills or explain strategies) and have a learned a great deal from them. Your videos quality has greatly improved over time (both in terms of the video itself and the content in it). Now I am continiuing on the long and ardous path to GM :)

Your insight into the other players' moves is incredible. Realising where White was every turn, and when to strike; realising when Black had tried and failed to kill Blue, leaving them on the ropes -- your read of each player's character and actions in fog is winning you so many bonuses. Amazing to see
I love the fog gameplay because it shows how much better Pete really is

What can I say about this game, last in turn, first on outbreak (takes one territory... EPIC WIN), easy clean-up for some great territory (uncontested), with a zombie meme worthy kill at the end stealing a few points. Great game, great understanding but most importantly great fun! Thanks Pete.

What a great game Pete! There seems to be a pattern for the zombie infection. In this game it seems like they infect a territory (last) taken by a player. It maybe helps to destroy the zombies closest to the last player first so that the infected will be way out.

I guess in risk nice guys finish first with one less bounty. Lol! Great game!
lmao wow with that last kill. plot twitst! Surprised the common sentiment is that going last is a bad position. In my practice games I became convinced that going last was incredibly OP because at any point you could just decide to break your opponent and let the zombies destroy their position forcing them to immediately decide whether to suicide into you, spend all their troops recovering their lost territory, or running to avoid being eliminated. At the same time, if they break you can repair with little harm done.
