RISK Mission II: Finished!

[Joe Republic]

Why is this game moving so slow?

Mainly my fault.  As I've said elsewhere already, I'm having a fairly strenuous week with physio sessions, and I only seem to have enough energy to run these for an hour or two a day.  Hopefully next week I should be more on top of things.

[KEmperor]

I wonder where Josh will place his reinforcements?

First let me turn in this set of RISK cards:





That's 2 extra battalions in each of Arizona, Kansas, and Nevada plus 10 battalions added to the reinforcements for this turn.

Now for those 21 battalions, place 4 in Nevada and 17 in Tennessee.

Attack Arizona -> California ; Kansas > Nebraska ; and Tennessee -> Virginia so long as I have more battalions attacking than are defending on both attacks, moving all available battalions into the target if successful.

Await further orders.

Ernest, could you clarify your 'AZ -> CA' order for me?  When you said to attack only so long as you have more attacking dice than the defense, did you want to include that too?  Only because it'd be a 3 vs. 3 battle, hence it isn't possible.  The use of the word 'both' was slightly confusing.

By the way, here's a provo map so far.

Granted, he has 3 battalions there, but he only gets to roll at most 2 dice on defense.  That why I said as long as I had more attacking dice not attacking battalions.

In addition to the AZ-> CA attack add:
VA-> WV -> KY so long as I have at least 2 dice to attack with after leaving 2 battalions behind in VA and WV.

Await further orders.

[Joe Republic]
