getting and placing New armies

GETTING AND PLACING NEW ARMIES




at the beginning of each turn, calculate how many new armies you'll add to the territories based on...
1. the number of TERRITORIES you occupy;

2. the value of the CONTINENTS you control

3. The value of the MATCHED sets of RISK cards you trade in;

4. The specific TERRITORY PICTURED on a traded-in set

Territories
at the beginning of every turn (including your first), count the number of territories you currently occupy, then divide the total by 3 (ignore any fraction). The answer is the number if armies you recieve. Place the new armies on any territory you already occupy.

example
11 territories= 3 armies
14 territories= 4 armies
17 territories= 5 armies
You will always recieve at LEAST 3 ARMIES on a turn, even if you occupy fewer than 9 territories.

Continents
In addition at the beginning of your turn you will recieve armies for each continent you control. (to control a continent you must occupy all it's territories at the start of your turn.) To find the exact number of armies you'll recieve for each continent, look at this list:

South America : 2 armies
Australia : 2 armies
South Africa : 3 armies
North America : 5 armies
Europe : 5 armies
Asia : 7 armies
