Very helpful to have all the links here. Thank you.

Nice job, very helpful ^^

The http://riskodds.com/ link is broken. Also, back when it was up I tried to double-check the results, and they weren't always correct. For a basic overview of odds (broken down to the single-attack level) I would recommend the table at the end of [url=http://chymeric.eu/blog/2014/07/23/per-attack-risk-dice-odds/]my RISK odds article[/url] (also copied on [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Risk_(game)#Dice_probabilities]wikipedia[/url]) - and for compound odds, I would recommend [url=http://www4.stat.ncsu.edu/~jaosborn/research/RISK.pdf]this research paper[/url].
