Cards and number of troops.

[Bjartmar]

How can I see, how many troops I'll get from three cards? What I mean, is, that I sometimes -can- see my troops recieved from 'x' cards, and sometimes not.

I am not completely sure what exactly you are asking here. Here is some basic info about how the different types of spoils cards work.

Spoils

Escalating groups are worth 4,6,8,10,12,15,20... (i.e. the first group of spoils turned in by any player is worth 4 troops, the second group is worth 6, etc.)

Flat Rate groups are worth 4 for red, 6 for green, 8 for blue and 10 for mixed.

Nuclear groups are not worth any troops. Instead, each region in the group is nuked to a single neutral troop (even if you own it!).

If you are in an Escalating game, it will tell you what the next set is worth. "My Spoils ([bracketed] if owned, next set worth 10 troops): ... "

For Flat Rate games, they will always be as they are posted above, from the Instructions.

I cannot find the continuation of the sequence 4,6,8,10,12,15,20 obtained for escalating groups. Is there a formula for the next member of the sequence?

[banana_hammocks]

I believe it increases by 5 each time, from that point.

Once you get passed 15 it becomes "Previous spoils cash in + 5"
