Oktoberfest for RISK Players

This October holds the third annual "Luxtoberfest" celebration. It's an Oktoberfest inspired series of online tournaments in support of the RISK style computer game Lux Delux.

Throughout October, there will be 17 different events including a number of "Tournament of Champions" (one for the "ladies"), team competitions, map nights, and a "Halloween Ball." The fest will also feature Lux's annual awards which will be voted on by the players. Categories include Best Host, Best Map, Best AI, Rookie of the Year, and Most Sportsmanlike Player.

Full details on the Luxtoberfest, including times and how to participate have been posted online at the Sillysoft Games Contest Page.

Lux Delux was a finalist in the Independent Games Festival awards in 2005. It's based on the board game RISK, but features over 200 different maps, a variety of game settings, and an active internet community with over 500 online games played every day.
