3 to deploy. I'm thinking 3 on N2. reinforce 2 from N8 to N7. N's to take N4 eventually. 2 from E5 and 2 from E3 to E4 just to have a presence in middle of E

atm you have no access to Asia/Australia, E6 is a 1, maybe you want to take it and advance. It´s an easy card and a good spot to get to Asia. you can drop 2 E5, 1N2 take E6, fort as you mentioned, some directioned to Asia. N4 isn´t so important for you because you are around in N7/N8 and N2, so you have good access to all parts of North America

Thanks for that. I've done the assault and won first throw. Now not sure about reinforcing. Do I put all of E's to E6 or put 2 spare onto E4, so I'll have 5 on E4 and 4 on E6

by **wacicha** on Mon Feb 02, 2009 6:20 pm

move 1 from e 4 to e 6

by **katyrush** on Mon Feb 02, 2009 6:24 pm

so 5 on e6, 4 on e4, 1 on e3

OR

5 on e6, 2 on e4 and 3 on e3

by **wacicha** on Tue Feb 03, 2009 3:49 pm

OK but leave your E4 Troops where they are as a backup group

3 to deploy. I'm thinking 1 each on a1, e4 and n2. no attacks

A piece of advice. You have gotten a card each turn, which is great. You need troops so you are correct in no attack. Put 2 on A6 1 on N2. I would also fort your stack back down to SA boarder. That way you have SA covered. You need to build a presence to force your way into asia when you need it. A6 and N2 will be the forces if needed.

The first round of card turn ins is meaningless for the most part. The fun begins when the card cache hits 12 or so.
If this where a regular game with cooks and enlisted the pace would be different. You are playing against Wacicha , mpjh and hanksy. They will play slow and methodical. They will block you out and wont make stupid attack moves. The other two players I don't know about.

This will be a game of positioning and one can only position with armies and patience.

Your looking good so far. Like the 1 star said you need to be able to get into asia when the time is right.

3 to deploy. You said last time the stacks I'll need are A6 and N2. Well, I don't have A6 anymore. but do have 8 on A1. SO do I put all 3 on n2 to make that an 8 - no attacks?

by **wacicha** on Sun Feb 08, 2009 2:41 pm

Deploy all on A1 and take easy card no advance

by **Iron Butterfly** on Sun Feb 08, 2009 3:57 pm

NOTICE

Australia can be a very effective tool for blocking folks out. If one has a large stack forted at the bottleneck they ruin any channce of someone taking someone out early game. It can be very frustrating when you have several colors set up but 3 or 4 folks are planted down there with a bodyguard guarding the entrance.

3 to deploy. Looks like 2 easy cards - e2 or s1, but if I get a card that means I'll have to cash them in next turn, but they should be worth at least 12 then because of other players who have a full set right now.

I'm a bit confused now. Iron is suggesting to bottleneck Australia, but my troops are on A1 and I thought I was best placed there?

I'm thinking I should put 1 each on n2, n8 and e4, just to build those up. Don't attack this turn as hopefully spoils will be worth more in a few turns time.

You are right do what you have laid out.

3 to deploy. I'm thinking I should put 3 A1. Reasoning behind this is that next turn both red and pink have to cash in spoils. Pink at the mo has19 troops surrounding me. Next turn he'll get 15 troops at least, so thinking I just need a big troop to stop him attacking me?

by **Bruceswar** on Thu Feb 12, 2009 1:45 am

Here is what I would do.

Not cash

Drop all on N9 your 6 stack in North America. You want to make yourself as hard to kill as possible.

Take E7 with your stack on A1
