Concurrent

What is Concurrent

Concurrent is a tabletop adaptation of the PC game, Risk 2, which is a computer adaptation of the classic board game, Risk.

Instead of the standard turn-taking that occurs in Risk, Concurrent utilizes a system where the players determine their troop deployment and attacks simultaneously.

The game consists of a game board, representing various countries and territories across the Earth, with connections between the countries by borders and some lines across continents and to island countries/territories. In addition, there are cards which have the various countries/territories listed on the card, and plastic figures which represent the player's army.

At the beginning of the game, all cards are passed out to the players, which represents the starting countries for each player. Afterward, the players are allowed a certain number of army units, relative to the total number of players, which they are allow to place on their starting countries.
