On behalf of the Annual RISK Classic team, good luck to all...we hope to see each of you in November.
I'll gladly donate some points to such a worthy cause. Note: the Annual RISK Classic will use manual initial troops - will you use that also in this tournament?

You are correct, the live tourney will use manual deployment where armies are placed one by one, player by player, till all armies have been deployed prior to the first attack round. However, on CC all armies are deployed at once prior to the first round, a notable variation. So, for the purposes of this satellite tourney, we will stick with the auto-deploy.
