Bacon King: it is your turn.  You have 3 reinforcements.


+ [7 states ÷ 3 = 3 reinforcements]
+ [No regions controlled]

= 3 reinforcements

[Bacon King]

All three reinforcements in TX.

VA-TN do or die.

AR-OK, attack until AR is down to 5 armies or OK is down to 2, whichever comes first.

TX-OK, do or die, but cease attack and await further orders if I lose 6 armies in the attack. Move enough troops so that TX and OK are as equal as possible (the extra goes into TX if I have enough to do that).

Assuming that all goes well, free move everyone TN-MS and end turn.

So, I'd like to turn in Oregon, New Mexico and Michigan cards for an additional 10, +2 in New Mexico. Of the 17, put 4 each in Maryland and West Virginia and 9 in New Mexico.

Then attack Maryland -> Virginia do or die and New Mexico->Oklahoma for as long as I have 3 attacking. Then await further orders.

[Joe Republic]

Sorry for the delay - I've only had a few minutes at a time on the forum the past few days.

[Gustaf]

No worries. I think we're all grateful that you're doing this.

Righto, here's my obligatory infantry (in case anyone wondered about the point of last round's southern adventure... yes, I'm a greedy units hound.)

   

This will probably fail but I need to try. Place 4 in Georgia and 13+2 in Alabama. Attack GA-SC-NC. Attack AL-MS-LA-TX. Await further instructions.

In that temporary map you suddenly dropped all my armies in Pennsylvania.

Whoops!  It was based off the last temporary map, before your return to Kansas too.

Whoops!  It was based off the last temporary map, before your return to Kansas too.

Is it mere coincidence that my armies always keep disappearing on your maps?

[Joe Republic]

Um... yes...

Just a heads up - my internet access between now and Sunday will be sporadic at best, if available at all.

[minionofmidas]

TX-AR do or die. If successful, AR-TN do or die, then NC-TN, then KY-TN.
If TX-AR is unsuccessful, MO-AR do or die. If successful, NC-TN, then KY-TN.
Whatever happens, await further instructions at this point (though unless AR has still not fallen, they'll by concerning a tactical move, if that.)

[Bacon King]

Gentlemen, it has been a privilege playing with you tonight.
