    I think the best plan is for me to move to Karachi so Smoove can pass me that black card.
    It may be a good idea for caliber to move Smoove to me so he can pass it first turn,

    Cure disease in Kolkata
    Drive to Karachi

    yea, that was the thing, SNT. you could move and cure a location like Seoul or Kinshasa, using all of your turns, then Caliber simply moves Smoove Operator to karachi and then you for 3turns. One of calibers special abilities is moving pawns to each other, no matter where they are.

    If you simply move to karachi, you are losing a turn, even with curing the rest of kolkata (cure kolkata, move to delhi, move to karachi)

    I like BEN's call on that. I like you heading to Kinshasa (using the card), then clearing it. Then Caliber moves me 2 into Karachi, then uses one to bring you to Karachi as well. Then he could use his last to move to LA or whatever.

    if SNT feels that's best, then it gives caliber the ability move smoove to karachi and then get to sydney to cure a cube there.

    I guess I'll wait to see if SNT changes orders or not.
    Totally up to the current player how they play it.

    Okay I'll go with the group decision.
    Charter a flight to Kinshasa,
    Cure all cubes.


    I just worry that we are not finding any cures yet.

    yea, the cures will come. we are set up pretty good with black, yellow and blue at the moment. we dont have the researcher to funnel us cards so we just have to play fire control for the time being.
    If we are lucky we can wipe the Black Terrors from the grid by next cycle.

    dang. that came sooner than I wanted. oh well, sydney already got called out so that's done with. I'm only worried about seoul at the moment.
    bit of a risk, but here's a plan:

    I cure 1 cube in Seoul. then move to bangkok.
    SNT cures black and does whatever else he can.
    Caliber flies to Bangkok and gives me the red card then pushes me to Taipei
    Smoove Operator drives to Taipei and gives me the red card
    I cure Red.

    If everyone is ok with that, here is my move.
    Cure 1 cube in Seoul
    Fly to
    Kolkata
    Cure 1 cube in Kolkata
    Drive to Bangkok

    edit**fingers crossed I can draw a couple red cards.

    yea, I'd go second option, SNT. Kolkata already happened this epidemic card and there are a lot of red cards that just got shuffled back in.

    plus, I think, Smoove can cure black in one go after he gives me the taipei card. I'll need to think it over when it gets to my turn again, but I know it's possible.
    and having more people on site to cure the red epidemic gives me a good feeling about Smoove killing black

    Okay orders changes, but you do need two more cards. If Caliber moves me to Shanghai in his turn then you can pick you up that card on your way to Seoul, for 5 cards to cure Red

  • NotoriusBENNotoriusBEN Registered User regular

    actually, that's brilliant, SNT.

    that lets Smoove go cure black this turn, instead of next.

    caliber flies to me in bangkok, gives me the card and moves you to shanghai and me to hong kong.
    Smoove flies to kolkata (auto cure), drives to chennai (auto cure), burns cairo card to land there, then drives to Algiers (auto cure) and he's set up for blue or yellow
    I go to shanghai grab your red card, and cure red.

    then since we are in red, we get this under control asap

    Too bad.
    Nice game, guys!

    Think I agree with SNT about finding cures.
    Makes it easier to clean up stuff, too.
    Hard to keep chasing outbreaks.

    I took the scientist because I thought that it would be better for finding cures, in retrospect the power to just hand each other cards would have been more handy and I should have gone for dispatcher..

    we did have a few unlucky outbreaks. Oh well

  • stever777stever777 AFK most Saturdays Registered User regular
    Scientist is a great role but has to be worked with by the whole group.
    Can't expect him to draw 4 of a color and cure things on his own.
