It doesn't matter given how it turned out, but I said to attack from CT to NY before attacking VT to NY.  Tongue

D'oh!

I actually did make a note of it, but I suppose I got the two mixed up when I went to do the rolls and such. If it would have made a difference (i.e., if you didn't say to end turn or if the attack didn't fail) I definitely would have double-checked more thoroughly and noticed it before posting.

Hey! No one asked for your opinion.

(in theory a non-Mikado-including game should greatly improve my chances. That hinges on him not manipulating people against me though.)

All reinforcements to Idaho.
Attack from Idaho to Washington, do or die.

Just out of caution, wait for further orders after that.

Sorry, I just assumed "do or die" meant all troops would end up in the conquered state. I could've sworn that was how it worked.

Either way! Tactical move all available troops (however many that number is at this point Tongue) from Washington back to Idaho and end my turn.

I've always understood "do or die" to mean, "attack until I take it or can't attack any more". Granted, usually that's when a player also moves all possible battalions, but given that you didn't specify I figured it'd be better to err on the side of caution.

All in South Carolina. Attack SC-GA-FL-AL-MS, do or die. Should the situation arise that I have 7+ troops in MS, move a number to Tennessee that would equalize things between them. If the sum is odd, put the extra one in TN.

Game rules:

If you say that your attack order is to "do or die", then there will be no retreat and the maximum number of battalions will be left in the conquered state.

Reinforcements
3 to Utah

Moves
Do or die, Missouri to Arkansas to Louisiana
Do or die, Texas to Oklahoma

If anything up to here has failed, stop and await further orders

Do or die, New Mexico to Colorado

If the above fails, do or die, Oklahoma to Colorado

Do or die, Utah to Nevada

If the above fails, stop and await further orders

Attack Nevada to Idaho. Stop when Marokai is reduced to 2 battalions; unless when this occurs I am attacking with 4 or more, in which case attack do or die, Nevada-Idaho-Washington.

Diplomacy
To President Gustaf Ikea of the Confederate States of America:
Heck, I'll extend a friendly offer: barbecue and beers in Crawford, mending fences broken by preemption!

Tactical Move
Await further orders

BK: Whenever you stop, please show a 'current map'. Helps me to visualize the situation Smiley

D'oh! My bad. I'll blame it on the cold meds I'm currently on Tongue

The map is correct. Except Texas actually has 1 battalion, not 4. Let me edit these mistakes.

Given that I'd provided you with incorrect information when you made the decision, I'll wait for you to reconfirm that you don't want a tactical move before anything else.

Pre-emptive orders...doesn't really matter what the result of the Vosem situation is.

All reinforcements to Maryland

Do-or-die attack: Maryland to Delaware

Await further orders.
