RISK Capital II: Finished!

[True Federalist (진정한 연방 주의자)]

Move the minimum 3 battalions into Wisconsin and make a tactical move of 1 battalion SC -> GA.

[Joe Republic]

 
New map:







General Supersoulty, it is your turn.  You have 8 reinforcements.


+ [14 states ÷ 3 = 5 reinforcements]
+ [Pacific region = 3 reinforcements]
= 8 reinforcements

[Colin]

Well... good show Ernest... I'm glad to see that you guys are good for something other than bitching.

I'm personally better at bitching than Risk so it's better to do what you're good at.

[12th Doctor]

Alright... that's enough of this sh**t, I'm done pissing around...

first, I woudl like to turn these in:







That gives me 20 total new units.

Place 8 in South Dakota

6 in Kansas

6 in North Dakota

Full out attack North Dakota ---> Minnesota
Ditto South Dakota---> Nebraska
Ditto Kansas---> Missouri

[Joe Republic]

The 2 battalions you get for the Washington card must be placed there, which means you have 18 available to deploy where you want.

Huh... how worthless... fine put them them and remove one from North Dakota and one from Kansas

[Joe Republic]

Reinforcements

Three cards have been traded in, worth 10 extra battalions.  The Washington card is worth another 2 battalions, which have been deployed there.

Of the 18 battalions available to deploy, 8 have been deployed in South Dakota, where there are now 9 in total; 5 have been deployed in North Dakota, where there are now 7 in total; and 5 have been deployed in Kansas, where there are now 6 in total.

[12th Doctor]

Eh... after close consideration...

I will move one unit from Colorado into Kansas.

Edit:  Acctually, move three units from Missouri into Kansas instead.  I have a feeling that MAS might make the "mistake" of thinking our NAP was only until Turn 5 as opposed to being "5 Turns"

A five turn NAP?  In RISK?  Good grief!  That's an eternity.  However, he might well wish to consider breaking it, as I see no good prospects of depriving you of the 7 battalion bonus for the Plains myself.

Well... at least you all know what the terms of the agreement were, so that you can stop talking about it.

New map:







General MAS117, it is your turn.  You have 6 reinforcements.


+ [8 states ÷ 3 = 3 reinforcements]
+ [South region = 3 reinforcements]
= 6 reinforcements

[Gustaf]

Unless MAS attacks Soulty now this game is over.

[12th Doctor]

Unless MAS attacks Soulty now this game is over.

It seems to me that, if I do win, it will only be because I'm the only person who doesn't believe it is inevitable.

I don't think it inevitable that you will win, but if he doesn't attack you, I'll be very surprised if it isn't you or Colin.

[MAS117]

Taking Ernest's capital doesn't help me at all here. I won't get any cards, and strategically it doesn't help me. So I had another idea in mind....

Place all 6 bats in AR

AR (Leave 2 in AR) --> Missouri --> IL --> IN

[minionofmidas]

Damn. He's gotten sane.

[MAS117]

Damn. He's gotten sane.

I don't think my NAP pact with Super was a mistake at all. If I didn't make it, I don't know if I'd still be in the game. Now, I'm definitely back in it.

[Joe Republic]

Wow, that Fing sucks. I guess I can't really do anything else. Tactical move is move 2 bats from NM to AZ and end turn.

Thanks again Joe!

Can I check these dice again?

[True Federalist (진정한 연방 주의자)]

I needed that.  It still won't save Lewis (since Colin is likely to finish him off now), but I had visions of Soulty now that his NAP with MAS is at an end, using his 16 reinforcements (plus his battalions in Iowa, Kansas, and California) to conquer MAS before he could turn in any of those 8 RISK cards I thought he would have after finishing off Lewis.  That definitely would have been game over for me, tho Colin might still have been able to pull out a win such a case.

[True Federalist (진정한 연방 주의자)]

Didn't MAS say that he'd leave 2 battalions behind in Arkansas?

[Colin]

AR (Leave 2 in AR)

It seems to me that he did.

[MAS117]

I did say that. What is the rolls pertaining to that Joe? I clearly stated leave 2 in AR. I didn't even notice that the attack did not leave 2 in AR.
