Calling all generals, we’re kicking off Community Bulletin #28! Did you know that July is named after Julius Caesar, who was born this month? Just like Caesar, we hope you’re ready to conquer new territories and achieve greatness! In this month’s bulletin, we're teasing Update v3.16, providing an update on v4.0, and covering everything happening in the RISK community (including tourneys!). Let’s get this party started!

Prepare for something that might add a bit of national pride to your strategies. Stay alert and keep an eye out for a special addition coming soon. Can you guess what it is? Stay tuned! [b]Update v4.0[/b] A major focus for our team is delivering Update v4.0, also known as the Network Overhaul. To understand the Network Overhaul, imagine RISK is a car. To move forward with the features and updates we want to add, we need to overhaul the engine and steering. When v4.0 launches, everything will look just as you remember—but it will run much smoother.
