Do you guys hit the "Remind" button after your turn? I haven't hit it yet. but digger seems to be on the ball.

Oh and if anyone else plays this ... Middle East does NOT connect with E Africa as it does in other similar games.

i would'nt be hitting "remind" unless a player seems to have gone awol, we get an email when its our turn anyway. I also gave the MyTurns notifier which sits in my task bar and changes colour when its my turn (I can only access my email via webmail at work)

I wonder why Tubby has 5 armies in Indonesia.

digger760 · 26-10-2007, 15:58

Not sure, they ended up there after his initial attack to capture Australia, and since then he has either forgotten to move them out or felt that other territories required immediate fortification.

In this game you only get 1 fortifcation move after attacking. I would like to move my 6 armies in Central America back to Africa (and hope that SirEirc focus on Tubby), but until now I had to move units up from south Africa, because they could provide a defense.

I its only a matter of time, Sir Eric does'nt have the armies to do much and Tubby is load with 5 cards so he is bound to trade for a big army soon. (I just cashed mine in for 10 armies..and they are dead already)

yeah, the armies in Siam weren't pressing and if I don't need to fortify anywhere else, I'll move them to the fronts, but it'll take a few turns unless they start carving into my territory better [

]

I'll laugh my head off if SirEric decides to cut into S. America through Africa since you have already busted up Asia.

What's the next set of cards worth?

Markstar · 26-10-2007, 18:39

Well, it's really interesting to follow this and you can count me in for the next game (though there are better games out there imho - I got Imperial for my birthday and I love it).

the cards are flat rate.. so cannons = 4, infantry = 6, calvary = 8 & mixed arsenal = 10

digger had a mixed set
