How would Tamas win? Afghan do not have Intel victory since they don't have more than all other combined, right?

[celedhring]

I don't have the board in front of me, but iirc he can use free intelligence actions to get rid of a Russian spy.

[Berkut]

Ahhh, I thought you were saying he would win if I took the topple. He would not, it would be a failed topple.

Which I am considering...

[Tamas]

I think it would be far more fun if I won.

[Habbaku]

  Deliberately failing a topple is certainly a viable strategy, especially for the Afghans.

I'd consider it in your position...

[Berkut]

OK I can't figure out a way to win, so I shall punt.

1. Play Nomadic Warlord to Tableau
Pay 1 to Yellow
Place two Afghan Armies in Herat
Take Afghan favor
(Free) Jan's Travel action, move cube to Nomadic Warlord
2. Military Action from Warlord, activate the two Armies in Herat to attack the Brits.
1 Afghan Army killed, remove Brit army and tribe.
Discard Yar Mohammed
Discard Royal Guard to get Tableau back to size.

Is it: Tamas' turn?

[Tamas]

Sorry guys forgot it was my turn.

Before I make my move though: is it just me or still I should have the Afghan favour card? I have a gift, so I have 3 points to Berkut's 2.

[celedhring]

So Berkut has handed you the victory? 

[Tamas]

So Berkut has handed you the victory? 

I'll give him the chance to redo his move.

[Tamas]

Berkut do you want to change your move in light of ignoring my Gift previously?

[Habbaku]

 

[Solmyr]

I'm thinking of starting a new game, no Berkuts allowed.

[Berkut]

Sorry, it has been a long weekend. Holiday, divorce, moving out, etc., etc.

I'll redo my move today.

[Berkut]

New move:

1. Purchase Topple
Intel War, and nobody has victory for it, so the topple fails.
Removed extra cubes (except Afghan)
Cull Tableau:
Discard Royal Guard

Tamas up to cull...

If you guys just want to post it, I can update one file.
