By the way, @dokyun, the Baron wonders if it would be okay for him to take your two stray territories in Tajikistan. I think we had somewhat of a miscommuncation there; like, it seems like you wanted to start in that Afghanistani panhandle thing, but since you start with 5 I just coloured in the general area there.
Mongolia may be interested in signing a NAP, depending on how we are to handle this. You could conquer the Indian subcontinent, while we take Central Asia and Persia. That is sort of how I am envisioning our potential spheres of influence in the future. We would also pledge not to involve ourselves in Arabia in any such agreement so that you will have a sea route and aren't surrounded/trapped by us, though Egypt may have designs on that territory. But the long and short of my proposed agreement is basically as follows.

No, what you did is actually fine. Zanzibar Land is said to be centered in that area, bordering Pakistan, China and the former Soviet Union (Tajikistan).
It's true that our leader, Big Boss has had his watchful eye over the Gulf after assimilating Afghanistan, and plans on expanding into the Indian subcontinent for easy access. However, it might take us a while to get there and we also want to wait and see what Egypt is planning.
Since we already control 2/3 of Tajikistan you'd just be depriving us of a bonus if you took it, some people would read that as an act of aggression. But since we're partly businessmen, we'll try and cut you a deal: let us keep Tajikistan and we won't bother you to the North. Go ahead and take Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, but stay out of Iran for now. It'd be entrapping if either of us moved in, and I think it's better to keep Iran as a buffer zone while we wait and see what Egypt is doing, so let's not move too fast. You still have Kazakhstan to conquer, anyway.
As the aid to our enlightened King of Kings Roman I (von Ungern), your reply has been duly acknowledged and sent to the Romanov Palace located in Ulanbataar, Mongolia where it is currently awaiting further response. In the mean time, won't you come and join us in an exquisite feast? I believe such an event would be a great facilitator of good relations between our two nations. Our nation's top artists have prepared a rough draft of what this event could look like. Praise Tengri.
Turn 1 - Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (+0)
No one's really sure if this is all thanks to a miracle or just average intra-party bureaucracy tricks but since we've rolled a 20, we've got a massive pool of power to use however we see fit. We'll restore order in all of Bosnia to stop something like the 90s happening again, after which we'll launch some spilled missions around the Croatian territories we still don't control. There's still a long way to truly achieve Tito's dream, but our nation is greatly prepared to deal with all of it.
Some of our reports indicate that our Eastern Slavic brothers are also followers of Slavic unity, the "Hyperboreans" so it wouldn't be that bad to start some sort of talks with them. Surely there mustn't be that much that divides us. We're both Slavs after all. We're also eyeing the current Asian situation with great interest.

Dice rolls aren't appearing but I swear I somehow got a 20. No idea how.

While quoting the post I can actually see that it says you rolled and that it's attached but isn't appearing, odd. Are you on mobile? I noticed that the rolls don't seem to appear on there, probably cause it's an older extension. You may have to roll from PC, sorry about that.

Posted on PC, checked on both, no idea. I'll see what happens next time. Hope it's another 20.

20 would be the dice roll ID, mine was 19. You wouldn't be able to roll a 20 with 3d6, unless communist corruption really runs so deep that the dice manufacturer is the son of one of the state officials.

Those secret messages
That spill into the air
From far away, so far away
A flowing river of illusion
Running with confusion
Never gone, it goes on and on.
@alix I added a roll to your post via the mod tools (I can't see what the roll says before it's done btw, I wouldn't cheat or anything but figured I should be transparent about that). Hopefully that's okay, let me know if it's still not working next turn.
Turn 1 - Second Mongol Empire (+3)
The Baron has ordered all troops to focus on the reconquest of the Steppe, first on Uzbekistan with any spills going to Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan. The revitalised Mongol Horde bears down on Central Asia, leaving naught but ruin and the ramblings of a mad man in it's path.
Actually okay, I just realised something a bit problematic about the rules. Sorry for all the chaos btw, this is like the first Risk game (at least in the 4chan style) ever hosted on a proper forum I believe so some kinks need to be ironed out but this should be the last one if the roll issues don't persist.
Alix's roll was 1, 1, 5. You could say this is doubles since two 1s were rolled on two of the dice. But on 4chan the way it always worked was only the last two of the post ID counted. So like my last roll of 2, 4, 4 would count as dubs, but Alix's wouldn't. But like 1, 1, 5 is still two dice with the same value on it. I'm not sure, what do you guys think? I was planning on it only counting if the last two dice were doubles to keep it as a fairly rare phenomenon but maybe that doesn't make much logical sense.
