In our game of risk the hegemons groups victory meant that the people in their group were put into a good mood and if they weren’t already a better mood for the rest of the day. Since the red, brown and yellow groups ended with fewer territories than they started with and farther from their goals than they started with as well. Being the head of state of the green team I felt good about the game because we didn’t reach our goal, but we still made progress and needed only one or two more turns to reach our goal.
If our risk board was a screen to what was really happening in the world then our moods would be a bit different. The United States would be in full swing celebration mode after they got over the loss of the massive troop loss they had in China, because they took out the Ukrainian ultra-nationalists. The Ukrainian ultra-nationalists wouldn’t be in the Ukraine anymore and would be very sad seeing that the United States took it. The religious movement countries would be upset seeing that they were pushed to the brink of annihilation.
In real life one countries victory can mean the total demise of another. For us in a game of risk it may be a better mood and or grade.
