      It's called tactics! I've played Risk a bunch of times, and everyone knows you plow through north Asia, then try to sneak a bunch of troops in to hold Australia or South America until the end of the game. By expanding the size of the front, you always get a huge advantage over your better supplied and more heavily armored opposition.

      Also, it makes for some AMAZING HEADLINES as NAFO liberals get gassed up on the idea of Ukrainian troops marching into Moscow before winter.

          It's literally not. That's one argument they make, but the article is about the West pressuring Ukraine to continue fighting. I'm fairly certain they'd continue fighting regardless.

            As insurgents, maybe. I doubt they'd be sending cruise missiles over the border if the US wasn't passing them out.
