2020-08-31 02:26:45 - sm8900: and you haven't really hit us!! it is just a flesh wound!!! lol!! now toss the holy hand grenade!!
2020-08-31 02:34:33 - sm8900: sorry guys, I hit a dead end at London LB.
2020-08-31 02:34:49 - sm8900: my fault, i should have looked at the map more closely
2020-08-31 02:36:11 - sm8900: ok, over to you guys!!
2020-08-31 02:38:52 - sm8900: oh guys, I have good news. it turns out that blue is a SoC training adviser!!! we're in luck!!!
2020-08-31 02:39:07 - sm8900: ok, blue.... so, any tips??? LOL!!! :) :)
2020-08-31 02:41:56 - sm8900: um blue, I couldn't help noticing that I am LIGHT blue. so.... we are practically related!!!! lol!!
2020-08-31 02:44:24 - sm8900: hey, if you guys want to see a game with a happy ending, take a look at game 20232726!! :)
2020-08-31 09:12:31 - Silly Knig-it: One has to avoid taking the lead too early, since everyone will turn on you. Hopefully I have not.
2020-08-31 09:14:19 - Silly Knig-it: One needs to look at how the opponent is deployed. Yellow has big stacks, trapped behind yellow singles. So I ignored yellow on my last turn. He can't hurt me with more than his deploy.
2020-08-31 09:15:03 - Silly Knig-it: Green has a similar problem but does have one lane of attack.
2020-08-31 09:15:45 - Silly Knig-it: teal has a huge stack that is probably going to hurt, but no longer has a deploy to speak of.
2020-08-31 09:18:04 - Silly Knig-it: I also would hightly recommend a trip through SoC. Not only does one learn some things but one also meets some really good people.
2020-08-31 09:27:35 - Silly Knig-it: Oh, and one last thing, teal is probably out of the game if he doesn't recover some terts.
2020-08-31 09:27:48 - Silly Knig-it: And retake some ships.
2020-08-31 14:50:38 - sm8900: sounds good, blue.thanks!!
2020-08-31 14:51:26 - sm8900: hey yellow, I have an idea. I will distract blue with some witticisms and bon mots.various japes about monty python, and so forth.
2020-08-31 14:51:42 - sm8900: meanwhile, yoiu sneak around his flank and hit him on his supply route.
2020-08-31 14:52:13 - sm8900: got it? this plan is absolutely foolproof. the only way it could not succeed is if some fools tells blue our plan. so mums the word, okay? LOL
2020-08-31 15:00:38 - sm8900: actually, yellow, now I have to turn back and recapture my own ships from blue.
2020-08-31 15:01:08 - sm8900: so if anyone is going to carry the battle to blue's own base of support, i think you may have to do so next, if you are ready. thanks.
2020-09-01 00:40:44 - sm8900: hm, did everyone see yellow's last turn?
2020-09-01 00:41:01 - sm8900: I notice that you place all your troops on your ships. any reason why?
2020-09-01 00:43:23 - sm8900: yellow, we do not have an alliance any more. sorry. thanks anyway.
2020-09-01 00:43:46 - sm8900: enjoy the game, everyone!!!!
2020-09-01 00:43:55 - sm8900: cool map, isn't it?
2020-09-01 13:38:28 - sm8900: hey yellow, blue does not have a set now.
2020-09-01 13:38:47 - sm8900: if you had chosen to work with me, maybe we would have had an actual chance now, in this game.
2020-09-01 13:39:17 - sm8900: right blue? what do you think? you seem to be our resident expert here now. open to your comments. thanks!
2020-09-02 04:53:39 - sm8900: wow.... 4 players , each with 2 cards!!! I think this just turned into a poker game!!! lol!!
2020-09-02 05:34:24 - Silly Knig-it: I think there is a new leader and a new high score who should be the target.
2020-09-02 13:08:26 - sm8900: Hi blue. That’s true, but there are other ways to see this as well.
2020-09-02 13:09:05 - sm8900: For one thing , our alliance finally has some momentum. You don’t end an alliance just when it is succeeding.
2020-09-02 13:09:50 - sm8900: For another thing, if we shift alliances that quickly, then no alliance in this game will have any stability anyway.
2020-09-02 13:10:38 - sm8900: For another thing, you are all the way across the board.. whereas yellow is right next to my positions. So an alliance makes geographical sense.
2020-09-02 13:11:09 - sm8900: And if I make an alliance with you, for all I know you will make me the target, once the balance shifts.
2020-09-02 13:12:02 - sm8900: And finally, at this point in the game, one extra bonus can make all the difference. So there’s not much point to shifting alliances now.
2020-09-02 13:12:28 - sm8900: Just trying to keep to a good sensible strategy, and hoping for a little bit of luck.
2020-09-02 13:13:00 - sm8900: Ok, there. How did I do, teach? Do I get some points for class participation? :)
2020-09-02 23:38:17 - Silly Knig-it: Hmmm!!, how to respond?
2020-09-02 23:40:58 - sm8900: Lol
2020-09-02 23:42:25 - sm8900: Make sure you evaluate all the tactical options before you respond and converse???!!! Amirite??? Lol!!!
2020-09-04 13:34:35 - ddbena: Gg all
2020-09-04 15:03:57 - sm8900: yellow, good game!
2020-09-04 15:04:16 - sm8900: congrats on your victory. this has been quite a game! well done!
2020-09-04 15:58:51 - ddbena: Yes it was a very good game! Enjoyed the conversation too. Would be happy to repeat with any one of you
2020-09-04 17:51:10 - ddbena: Messed that one up and ran out of time. Hope you can't cash or suddenly the game is yours!
2020-09-04 20:38:43 - sm8900: lol you're in luck!! i just have two red cards, and one blue!!! c'est la guerre, mon ami!! :-)
2020-09-04 20:42:13 - sm8900: and now i have a set! red, blue, and green!! lol! oh well!
2020-09-04 20:43:40 - sm8900: although actually.... i guess now i have actually increased my troop count? interesting!
