We don't use universal settings anywhere over these games. If you play Manual, Automatic, Unlimited, No spoil, Nuclear, Chained, Adjacent, Freestyle, Sequential, 1 v 1, 8 player standard, doubles or triples, flat rate and escalating and more... any tactic anyone brings up you could just say.. oh X works for 7 of the above, BUT WAIT! IT DOESN'T WORK FOR ALL THE REST!

CC community will always split: Some believe in the power of the 4´s , and the others build stacks and wonder why the their opponents always get the better dice.

Most players do not even know who or how there terit got reduced (in a four player game). Eliminating any retaliation.
Also good when you have a truce with a player in a multi player game. Reduce but no conquer terit as to leave no evidence (game log)
Depending on what kind of truce you have. Non-aggression pact would be dishonorable to do such a thing. That is why I try to make Buffer zone treaty oppose to non-aggression pact. Buffer zone prevents you from taking control region or terit...nothing wrong with Attacking it (wearing it down).
Also, you never know how often someone checks in. In big games I'll check in occasionally after other players have gone but before I go. I will be able to tell which player attacked my stack because I'll know that it was fine after A, B, and C went, but then all of a sudden it was less after Players D and E went? Okay obviously it was one of them. If I only have A, B, and D on my border that was "mysteriously" weakened then, hmmm, guess who the culprit was...

You complete your winning odds advantage more fully this way by playing as many 3vs.2 dice as possible, so that at some point you must be successful in some assault and if you lose you only lose 1 or 2 troops leaving you with at least 2 troops on the regions from whence you've tried this. But where you are successful, have a huge advantage in that area.
[Edit]
Also in adding; it is always a good idea to weaken first thus utilizing your advantage to it's fullest potential of 3vs.2 dice, and then if possible mopping up with the 1's at the end of the Assault. That is what I am summarizing is the whole tenet of this tactic.

rolling 4v3 is negative odds (46%). so no, that is a stupid thing to do unless there is a good reason.
