Caleb's Triumph: The Unlikely Winner of Risk Legacy

For the first time in our Risk Legacy games, Caleb emerged victorious, claiming the win after weeks of intense battles and strategic planning. It was a thrilling night at the table as my boys and I returned to the game we love, eager to see what new surprises lay ahead.

The evening began with each player choosing their faction and starting location. Trevor opted for the Mercenary scar, allowing him an additional troop in his HQ territory every turn. Jaden took his time developing his Asian territories, while Caleb chose Khan Industries and started in Iceland. I selected the Saharan Republic faction and founded a new city, Limonada, in Central America – our game's first major settlement.

Trevor then picked up the Die Mechaniker faction and established himself in Shelvax, South Africa. Jaden, meanwhile, went for the Enclave of the Bear faction and set up his HQ in Eastern Australia. As a reminder, each controlled Headquarters earns victory points, giving Caleb an early advantage with two starting points.

The game was marked by moments of both collaboration and competition. Despite my efforts to work together with Caleb, he always seemed to turn the tables and attack me. But as we reached the final stages, it became clear that our young champion would emerge victorious.

And so, after many hours of gameplay, Caleb's persistence paid off, securing his first-ever win in Risk Legacy. We're thrilled to see him succeed and are already looking forward to our next game night, when we'll continue to shape the legacy of our game together.
