Standard |
In a standard game each player fends for himself and there is only one winner. |
|
Automatic |
Regions are randomly distributed at the start of the game and each region starts with three troops. |
|
Sequential |
A player is selected at random to go first and then subsequent players follow in turn. During a team game the play order alternates between the teams. |
|
Flat Rate |
At the end of your turn if you have conquered at least one region you get 'spoils.' Once you have three of the same color (or three different) these can be traded in at the start of your turn for bonus troops. A set of three reds is worth four bonus troops. Three greens is worth six and three blues is worth 8. A set of three different colors is worth ten bonus troops. If you own any of the regions that you trade-in you get two bonus troops on those regions. |
|
Chained |
At the end of your turn you can reinforce once from one region to another (they must be connected by regions that you own). |
|
No |
Fog of War masks enemy positions that are not adjacent to your forces (or your team's forces). It also masks region and zone names in the log |
|
No |
You can only assault from regions held since the start of your turn. If you conquer a region during your turn you cannot assault from it until your next turn. |
|

2009-03-25 05:52:43 - Geoff_with_a_G: that was you who attacked me in loiusville wasn't it DR?
2009-03-25 17:50:42 - roconnor: thanks for the game all
2009-03-28 00:52:43 - DigitalRuin: From Cincy? Nope.
2009-03-29 04:49:31 - Geoff_with_a_G: yeah, from cincy...so if it wasn't you DR, was it you natali that killed about 15 of my boys in louisville?
2009-03-29 19:55:24 - Natali: Nope, I didn't do it.
2009-03-29 20:24:10 - EdwinG: It wasn't me, either.
2009-04-28 12:54:40 - EdwinG: geoff, in case you haven't noticed, as long as you keep putting armies on Milwaukee, I'll keep removing them.
2009-04-28 13:19:29 - Geoff_with_a_G: i've been hoping you'd stop doing that
2009-04-29 11:52:27 - EdwinG: Nah, it's fun!
2009-05-02 01:49:50 - EdwinG: geoff, why do you keep wasting your armies on Milwaukee?
2009-05-03 05:51:17 - Geoff_with_a_G: from my point of view, you have the biggest bonus and if you take milwaukee you'll be even bigger...
2009-05-03 05:52:06 - Geoff_with_a_G: wasting my armies in milwaukee is slightly sacrificing myself for the benefit of the other two players, but you have me surrounded...
2009-05-03 05:53:12 - Geoff_with_a_G: if you're not going to take milwaukee then let me build up enough there so i have an equilibrium with you...or move green bay and madison back to ashland and eau claire
2009-05-03 06:03:12 - Geoff_with_a_G: if you take milwaukee, if the difference between our borders continues to slowly increase, you'll draw fire, your choice, i got nowhere else to go...pink is stuck in the middle, orange is stuck on the side and they won't let you get detroit either
2009-05-06 14:10:24 - le_tigre: this game needs a kick in the pants
2009-05-06 21:21:39 - Natali: indeed, someone should suicide so the others can end this
2009-05-08 12:39:41 - EdwinG: Go ahead, Natali. Do it!!
2009-05-08 12:40:14 - EdwinG: Just make sure you hit everyone evenly.
2009-05-10 12:19:44 - EdwinG: geoff, that wasn't a very good trade for you, Missouri for Kentucky.
2009-05-11 01:53:50 - Geoff_with_a_G: i knew i'd get one less reinforcement, you'd take wisconsin and probably natali would get kentucky...
2009-05-11 01:56:33 - Geoff_with_a_G: you were stongest player and only i could touch you...i had a longer term guess about how it might work out, i knew you could also come back and take kansas city, but didn't think you would...
2009-05-11 01:57:28 - Geoff_with_a_G: as it was only i could touch you, so now it's strongest player v weakest player, i hope i get some help...
2009-05-11 11:33:41 - EdwinG: You probably will get some help at this point. Although it would be difficult for Natali to attack me without exposing himself to a backside attack by le_tigre.
2009-05-12 02:23:20 - Geoff_with_a_G: true, i wouldn't want to be taken from behind by te_tigre
2009-05-12 02:58:36 - le_tigre: thats what she said
2009-05-12 12:03:35 - EdwinG: Don't you just hate having 5 cards and nothing to turn in but a red set! :-(
2009-05-12 13:24:16 - le_tigre: i haven't got a card for a long time, don't make me jealous
2009-05-16 22:36:02 - le_tigre: i'm not the person to not play nice with red
2009-05-17 02:27:06 - le_tigre: I'm somewhat eratic and vengefull
2009-05-17 18:15:24 - EdwinG: That's fine, I'm usually cool and calculating.
2009-06-01 00:15:03 - EdwinG: Sorry about missing a couple turns. I went away Thursday for a long weekend in the mountains. I'm back now.
2009-06-03 12:23:08 - EdwinG: le-tigre, if you leave more than 2 armies on Detroit I will remove them, just like I did with geoff and Milwaukee.
2009-06-03 12:24:07 - EdwinG: I will generally lose fewer armies than you will. This round you lost 10 and I lost only 7.
2009-06-03 19:38:07 - le_tigre: agreed
2009-06-03 19:39:03 - le_tigre: I won't leave more than 2
2009-06-03 19:41:37 - le_tigre: you are right about attacking, this time I used 10 of mine and killed 18 of yours!
2009-06-05 19:26:33 - EdwinG: Natali, a set of red cards hardly seems worth the effort it took to eliminate le_tigre. :-)
2009-06-06 15:25:59 - Natali: lol true, I was aiming for two mixed sets
2009-06-06 16:03:12 - EdwinG: Yea, and I got them instead. A little luck on my side went a long ways. GG Natali.
2009-06-06 19:27:11 - Natali: It was a good game!
