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). |
Yes |
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. |
None |
|
24 Hours |
Each player has up to 24 hours to complete a turn. You will get an email notification when it is your turn to play. |

2019-06-29 16:47:46 - brucemoose: is this game a stalemate?
2019-07-01 20:38:52 - 5ATriLos4: Guess so.
2019-07-01 20:39:58 - 5ATriLos4: Loose Canon, is not that loose.
2019-07-01 21:09:45 - brucemoose: No, he isn't and you continue to be a good player.
2019-07-03 20:53:38 - 5ATriLos4: Well, maybe not the best play, but it did felt good.
2019-07-04 09:42:08 - brucemoose: well, I thought it would start something, but Loose Canon seems to have some good reserves....like we all do, right?! Interesting game.
2019-07-08 18:17:15 - brucemoose: we're shooting ourselves in the foot, Loose Canon
2019-07-08 18:18:13 - brucemoose: do you really want that spot? I can retreat if its that important to you
2019-07-09 22:21:01 - brucemoose: 5ATriLos4, I'm dreading when that stack you're making appears all of a sudden next to me :(
2019-07-10 07:58:49 - 5ATriLos4: With the one you have stationed at my door? :)
2019-07-10 08:31:37 - brucemoose: I'm just trying to keep up with the one you already have there. What worries me is the one(s) I can't see. :)
2019-07-11 08:02:53 - 5ATriLos4: I will not confirm or deny the existence of such...
2019-07-11 22:14:44 - brucemoose: well, that got me nothing.
2019-07-17 20:37:21 - 5ATriLos4: Loose Canon, yo are a pain in the...
2019-07-17 21:26:58 - Loose Canon: don't hide your 100s stack next to me out of sight of pink without expecting some reaction
2019-07-17 22:04:23 - 5ATriLos4: Yeah, I guess...
2019-07-18 18:18:17 - Loose Canon: welll orange you either calculate you have enough to beat pink and me or you need to back yourself right out, becuase my calculation is I have noone beat but pink might have us both
2019-07-18 18:32:39 - brucemoose: i've always said I was afraid of when the hidden stacks were going to be revealed. They're coming sooner or later. I'm not sure who to go after.
2019-07-18 23:08:25 - 5ATriLos4: Blue is just mean. (Doesn't mean is not a good player and excel in poker).
2019-07-19 18:06:41 - brucemoose: not sure if that was wise, but had to check things out a bit. There are a lot of unknowns in this game.
2019-07-19 19:06:15 - 5ATriLos4: Why? I'm an open book.
2019-07-19 19:45:19 - brucemoose: hahahaha!!! You continue to make me laugh
2019-07-19 23:15:28 - 5ATriLos4: But the game is running your way, I have a target on my back for you and Loose Canon.
2019-07-19 23:16:32 - 5ATriLos4: Loose Canon, my new best friend, give me one more turn, to retreat from your ancestor's train stations.
2019-07-20 11:26:20 - brucemoose: you're retreating??!!!
2019-07-20 11:27:19 - brucemoose: I was going to tell LC that that was all I could do. So it seems we're both retreating and this slides back into a stalemate. :(
2019-07-20 20:02:06 - 5ATriLos4: Now you are the one who's bluffing. I've been the punching bag form you both and you complain?
2019-07-20 20:03:34 - 5ATriLos4: Now it's your tirn to show you do not waht a stalemate. Ah, just remember we all want to win, bummer. :(
2019-07-20 20:04:25 - 5ATriLos4: Sorry for the spell mistakes... I'm sure you get the gist. :)
2019-07-20 21:49:35 - brucemoose: i'm not complaining. I just said that's all I've got for the moment. I don't want a stalemate, but it's what we've got - very common in a 3-player game.
2019-07-21 08:07:18 - 5ATriLos4: Yes, a tie-break would be nice.
2019-07-21 09:18:45 - Loose Canon: i would go for that - if so esc spoils on this map? - but what I would say is honestly I think i'm in last place at moment
2019-07-21 16:29:26 - 5ATriLos4: That would be ok.
2019-07-21 19:48:05 - brucemoose: I think that would be fine by me too. Even if you are in last place, LC, if either orange or I go after the other, than you'll attack the one who comes out on top. And if either orange or I go after you, than the one who comes out on top on that one
2019-07-21 19:48:29 - brucemoose: will also be attacked by the 3rd one. So, that's why neither orange or I are willing to make a move.
2019-07-21 19:50:03 - brucemoose: so, LC, are you going to set it up and invite us?
2019-07-21 22:08:07 - Loose Canon: ok I think I've set up and sent invites
2019-07-22 07:18:20 - brucemoose: ok, so in this game we will just take an easy 1, nothing too drastic until the other one finishes....right?
2019-07-22 08:09:16 - 5ATriLos4: Well I will not eben bother taking ones I'll just deploy where the game decides a no attacks. :)
2019-07-22 08:09:40 - 5ATriLos4: Peace...
2019-08-06 22:30:09 - brucemoose: I'd like to know each of your total troop # in this game. I'm just curious.
2019-08-06 22:33:45 - Loose Canon: 634
2019-08-06 22:35:02 - brucemoose: whoever wins the play off game I think we should just let that person hold both termini and 5 stations -- it would be faster it seems. I'll start pulling back off of the ones I own. Or do you have another idea?
2019-08-06 22:40:34 - 5ATriLos4: 917
2019-08-06 22:45:58 - Loose Canon: well played orange
2019-08-06 22:47:20 - Loose Canon: bruce lets just suicide each other ornage won the play off
2019-08-06 22:52:05 - brucemoose: All the stations are 1's so orange can just take them all and if we hit each other for one more turn, he wins by holding them 1 round.
2019-08-06 22:52:40 - brucemoose: enjoyed playing with you, Loose. GL in your future games
2019-08-06 22:59:52 - 5ATriLos4: Thanks guys, I was really lucky.
