When a successful attack results in the defender moving his or her last piece out of his or her home continent, the attacker may replace any or all of the defender's pieces on the board with small pyramids of the attacker's color, then the rest of the defender's pieces are removed from the board. If the attacker has no small pieces available, this option is unavailable.

One somewhat annoying aspect of Risk and Diplomacy is that players get eliminated one at a time and become spectators for the remainder of the game. The "remainder of the game" isn't as long with WW5 as for those others, but I still don't think it's a good idea to actually encourage the elimination of other players.
