Standard |
In a standard game each player fends for himself and there is only one winner. |
Automatic |
Regions are randomly distributed at the start of the game and each region starts with three troops. |
Sequential |
A player is selected at random to go first and then subsequent players follow in turn. During a team game the play order alternates between the teams. |
Escalating |
At the end of your turn if you have conquered at least one region you get 'spoils.' Once you have three of the same color (or three different) these can be traded in at the start of your turn for bonus troops. Escalating Spoils indicates that each set traded in will be worth more than the previous. The first set is worth 4 bonus troops. Then 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, 25 etc. If you own any of the regions that you trade in you get two bonus troops on those regions. |
Chained |
At the end of your turn you can reinforce once from one region to another (they must be connected by regions that you own). |
No |
Fog of War masks enemy positions that are not adjacent to your forces (or your team's forces). It also masks region and zone names in the log |
No |
You can only assault from regions held since the start of your turn. If you conquer a region during your turn you cannot assault from it until your next turn. |
None |
|
24 Hours |
Each player has up to 24 hours to complete a turn. You will get an email notification when it is your turn to play. |

2011-08-21 19:49:36 - musicalmaven eliminated Tiberius Maximus from the game
2011-08-21 19:49:36 - musicalmaven won the game
2011-08-21 19:49:36 - Tiberius Maximus lost 11 points
2011-08-21 19:49:36 - musicalmaven gained 11 points
2011-08-16 22:57:22 - Tiberius Maximus: Howdy buddy
2011-08-16 22:57:59 - Tiberius Maximus: I wonder if being green this time will be better for me - nah LOL
2011-08-16 22:59:12 - Tiberius Maximus: man - you got a better drop than last time - no good choices
2011-08-17 02:23:23 - musicalmaven: so - if we are going to talk strategy - why did you place your men in jamaica and ellis is.?
2011-08-17 03:39:22 - Tiberius Maximus: my thought was that you were so well placed at the begining that perhaps just perhpas I could get two lucky rolls on take the islands so as to obht potentially get the bonus and also put pressure on you to 2 thingss - i.e., go after staten and the islands
2011-08-17 03:41:36 - Tiberius Maximus: keep me from the bonus and away from what would be starting power base (as observed by the your preference in the last game and having the numerical advantage). Jamica seemed to afford me the same numerical advantage and relative isolation from your
2011-08-17 03:43:47 - Tiberius Maximus: expected power base (as it also morphed to broklyn in the next couple or three turns). I saw that the queens outer would be a bonus of 5 and felt that with the other distraction and goals you had that I might be able to capture/hold it or at least cause
2011-08-17 03:45:32 - Tiberius Maximus: you to spread yourself too thin; if things go well then the inner or the bronx may be achievable
2011-08-17 03:46:25 - Tiberius Maximus: the gamble did not work but with your dropped I needed a bold stroke
2011-08-17 15:49:34 - musicalmaven: you have to remember that the reason outer queens gets a bonus of 5 is that is so large, and can be attacked from a lot of directions. even without my attacking into it, you still have to wait the 3rd round before you would have been able to get it.
2011-08-17 15:52:26 - musicalmaven: it would have been the 4th round before you would have been able to get the bonus - and that would have been good - getting it that early. meanwhile i could have been picking you off else where, or lining up to attack it, or attack it before you get it.
2011-08-17 15:53:46 - Tiberius Maximus: good morning or for you lunch/afternoon
2011-08-17 15:54:35 - Tiberius Maximus: agreed but what would you have done if I had the same good drops you had?
2011-08-17 15:56:08 - musicalmaven: if i had bad dice and you were able to get it, you would have a big leg up - but if i had bad dice and you were attacking smaller bonus areas, you may also have been getting 5 or more bonus armies and probably whittling down my territories too.
2011-08-17 15:59:02 - Tiberius Maximus: well as you said last game having good dice makes anyone's stragey look good; so you are right in that regard and I was betwixed and between on what to do; if it is apparent that unless I get a good set of rolls next turn that the inevitable slide of fall
2011-08-17 15:59:30 - Tiberius Maximus: ing behind will make a comeback too difficult
2011-08-17 15:59:43 - musicalmaven: as you mentioned earlier - i got a numerical advantage last game. regardless of the map you play, you want to get decent dice and try to get a numerical advantage. you spread yourself too thin in trying for 2 attack points.
2011-08-17 16:01:00 - Tiberius Maximus: OK - good point and understood a very risky strategy that heavily depends on having that lucky set of rolls right off the bat
2011-08-17 16:02:29 - Tiberius Maximus: so I take it you are playing on your lunch hour while I am about to start my day
2011-08-17 16:02:36 - musicalmaven: if you placed all your men in one place you would have had a better shot. watch other higher ranked players - often the consolidate their men, conceding some territories early. would you attack a territory with 5 men or 1?
2011-08-17 16:03:42 - Tiberius Maximus: got it; a more conservative strategy that allows for greater results at a key point
2011-08-17 16:06:08 - Tiberius Maximus: got to go in a minute so if you want me to take my turn now you need to finish your turn
2011-08-17 16:06:16 - musicalmaven: more men gives a better chance of getting a card and getting cards is how you get more men in an escalating game, not by getting area bonus'. i took staten island, but to do so i attacked 2 of your territories, no nuetrals.
2011-08-17 16:08:34 - Tiberius Maximus: I do recognize the double advantage of attacking the opponent verses the neutral but my drops did not favor it as it did you in staten
2011-08-17 16:09:02 - musicalmaven: you asked what i would have done with a reversed drop. i might have tried for the small islands, or i might have placed my men on staten is. - attacked 1 or 2 territories, depending on how good my dice were, but not do too much.
2011-08-17 16:10:45 - musicalmaven: i have a tee-shirt which reads "WARNING - retiree, knows it all and has plenty of time to tell you all about it. as you can see - it is true.
2011-08-17 16:11:00 - Tiberius Maximus: yep - I just, as you said, spread myself too thin, then gambled and lost the gamble
2011-08-17 16:12:31 - Tiberius Maximus: not a retiree but an independent that gives me great flexibilty especially these last few weeks becasue I somewhat reshuffled my schedue to take advantange of the summer time and while my kids are home for the summer vacation which ended today
2011-08-17 16:15:16 - Tiberius Maximus: be back in about an hour and a half
2011-08-18 04:23:35 - musicalmaven: my independence is greatly misunderstood- or is it greatly taken advantage of. i spent most of the afternoon sitting for our grandson, who is autistic, and then making dinner, as my wife was baby sitting for our grand-daughter.
2011-08-18 04:24:39 - musicalmaven: if your kids are back in school already, i assume you are in the south, or possibly in the mid-west.
2011-08-18 04:25:37 - musicalmaven: oh - wait a minute - you are on the west coast. i didn't realize you guys go back to school so early.
2011-08-18 05:26:59 - Tiberius Maximus: I am 5th generation Napa Valley and my two girls are in HS; I simply am able to find necessary mental breaktime lately with this game; it was one of my favorite board games when I was a kid and am delighted to have discovered CC and so many opportunities
2011-08-18 05:27:24 - Tiberius Maximus: to play leisurely in between work sessions.
2011-08-18 15:41:56 - Tiberius Maximus: It looks like this next turn could spell the end for me unless your roles are poor; each turn you have had the advantage of using the bonus and making sure I do not get mine and now if you are successfull and with spoil bonus so low I cannot come back
2011-08-18 19:50:17 - musicalmaven: i too have loved the game since i was a kid. one of my cousins kids told me about cc and i've been in since then.
2011-08-18 19:50:55 - musicalmaven: i doubt my turn made as big an impact as you feared - and now you can cash - in.
2011-08-18 21:24:26 - Tiberius Maximus: gee it looks like the ruskies have invaded NY - LOL I need nuke cards not armies to lay on your power regions LOL
2011-08-19 15:49:47 - Tiberius Maximus: good morning for me and good afternoon to you; hope you are having a good day
2011-08-19 19:26:56 - musicalmaven: happy lunch-time to you. i am watch my autistic grandson, son my hands are full, but it is a good day so far. i trust you are having a good one too.
2011-08-19 21:00:39 - Tiberius Maximus: yep but it looks I am going down big time LOL
2011-08-19 21:02:28 - Tiberius Maximus: my roles on the financial district were pathetic - no one good win with roles like that
2011-08-20 01:45:24 - musicalmaven: i'm not exactly knocking them out of the park either. this turn was a perfect 50% - 9 men beat/9 men lost (against 2) and 3 beat and 3ost (against a 1). over my last 3 turns i am 19 & 19 (against 2) and 9 & 7 (against 1). normal is 54% and 66%.
2011-08-20 06:54:52 - Tiberius Maximus: absent a miracle I have at most 3 turns even with those roles
2011-08-20 15:28:39 - Tiberius Maximus: I feel like I went to visit NY and got mugged; at least when people come to the valley where I live and we take their money it is biggest we plyed them with wine and food - I am mugged, homeless and starving when I play you LOL
2011-08-20 15:32:05 - Tiberius Maximus: GG - if you want to play again but this time can we try fog of war and unlimited reinforcemt, no spoils or nuclear?
2011-08-21 01:00:38 - musicalmaven: ok - i don't like no spoils. but i hate nukes, so if we must play with one of those, i'll take no spoils.
2011-08-21 01:01:08 - musicalmaven: hey - am i being accused of being a mugger????
2011-08-21 19:50:38 - musicalmaven: good game green. see you soon.
