Risk Domination IX [Round 4: Jas]

[Junkie]

All in Illinois.  Attack Illinois to Missouri do or die.

[Vasall des Midas]

Ugh, thanks a lot, DeLAMEware.  Why is it that states that you're only conquering because you're just passing through to get somewhere else are always the ones that put up the most fight?

They notice your lack of love and are naturally resentful?

[Vosem]

Junkie posted his orders...

[Joe Republic]

*ahem*

[Bacon King]

Sorry guys, life's been incredibly hectic the last couple of weeks, midterms were overwhelming. But, let's get this show back on the road, shall we?

[Marokai]

Hmm.

Back 6 troops from New Mexico to Arizona, take card, end turn.

[Vosem]

Gustaf, I want to introduce you to an alarming statistic.

Junkie has 6 battalions stationed on his border with you. I have 8. Jas has 15; that is, more than both of us combined.

Just sayin'.

[Bacon King]

Okay, sorry for the delay, but it looks like I lost the paper I wrote everyone's RISK cards down on when I moved last week; I've been trying to find it but it hasn't turned up anywhere. I'm posting this from a school computer, but after class today I'll go through all my sent messages and put everything back together in a spreadsheet so it can be stored electronically. Junkie and Marokai, I'll send you new cards once I do that In the mean time, though, I do have time to set things up for Gustaf's next turn...

[Bacon King]

Hmm.

Back 6 troops from New Mexico to Arizona, take card, end turn.

Tactical Move
Six battalions have been redeployed from New Mexico to Arizona.

[Bacon King]

GENERALS [1]  Joe [2]  Junkie [3]  Marokai [4]  Gustaf [5]  Vosem [6]  Jas

Gustaf: it is your turn.  You have 7 reinforcements.


+ [7 states ÷ 3 = 3 reinforcements]
+ [Southeast Region = 4 reinforcements]

= 7 reinforcements

[Gustaf]

Hm. 4 in North Carolina. 3 in Tennessee. Go TN->MO do or die. Put 3 in TN. If I lose nothing, go do or die MO->KS and then end turn. If I lose up to 3, move everything back to TN and end turn. If I lose more than 3 let me think.

[Vosem]

*ahem*

[Bacon King]

I apologize for shirking my responsibilities here, everyone.

To be completely open and honest with you guys, I've just been so overwhelmed with work and school lately (and, in addition, struggling to be there for a close friend who is going through a very difficult time right now, but I'd prefer to not go into the details here) that by the time I'm free to access the forum I feel too burned out to even do the bit of work required to re-do the cards (which obviously needs to be taken care of before doing any more turns, of course). Hell, I really need a vacation, or something.

I'm sorry for the delay; I assure you I'll take care of it soon so we can resume. Consider the game to be on a short hiatus in the interim. I hope you guys understand, and again, I do sincerely apologize for this issue.

[Vosem]

Hopeful bump?

[Bacon King]

I have two finals left, give me a few days

[Vosem]

A few days have been given

[Vosem]

I always thought
That war was fun;
A week or two
And home I'd run...
