Pandemic (Victory!)

[Farren]

Moving me is only going to be helpful if I'm not giving you the SF card, or if you end your turn in SF.

My plan for 3.2 was this:

1) Move to Kinshasa
2) Treat Disease (Kinshasa)
3) Move to Tokyo (via Tokyo card)
4) Move to San Francisco.

If I'm ending my turn in SF, I don't really have anything productive I can do with an extra move - unless a cube pops up in Tokyo or San Francisco. (Khartoum has a cube, but if I'm moved out of Khartoum I wouldn't be able to treat it.)

Ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

I assume that by "shuttle", George meant a Direct Flight

Yeah that's what I meant sorry


@TW what if instead of teleporting Farren, you teleport me to Kinshasa? That way I can hold the front in case of an outbreak. After you get the Washington card of course.

He can't teleport you to Kinshasa - nobody's there - but he could teleport you to Khartoum (where I currently am), which would be just as effective.

[the worst]

Ah good point, I hadn't done enough counting for 3.2. My spending 4.1 by teleporting to you, taking the SF card, then (ideally) researching a cure is probably the better move to set up.

So for my turn:
- teleport over to Washington.
- take Washington card from George.
- teleport George to Khartoum.
- move Nancy to Karachi? i'd probably appreciate Nancy's input on this if she's around. to me it makes sense to have some spread towards the east (especially since we're all headed to NA).

I'll lock this in, please.

Action 4 is illegal: there's no way to move the Scientist to Karachi in one move. Please revise that action or tell me if I'm wrong for some reason.

I received a pm about this but seeing as it’s not my turn yet, I’ll just check in.

[lendunistus]

welp, I said I would get this going, but

I have COVID and I currently don't have access to the computer with the Pandemic files on it

sorry, but this is going to be delayed for at least a week

[Farren]

May your recovery go swiftly! Please keep us posted when you can.

[lendunistus]

so I forgot

I've been covid-free for about a week and a half now. should be able to continue with the game today

[lendunistus]

The two player cards that have been drawn are Osaka and Toronto.

This puts the Dispatcher's hand at 8 cards, which is one card above the 7-card hand limit.

Please select one player card to discard.

[GeorgeBailey]

Probably Osaka right?

We've gotten like 0 red card draws this game.

[the worst]

I'll discard Osaka thanks for the reminder dm Len, glad you're past covid!

[lendunistus]

Player cards: Osaka (discarded) and Toronto

Infections: Algiers, Bangkok

Discard pile:



Current turn: Turn 3.2, Medic: Farren

[lendunistus]

I'm dropping deadlines because we don't seem to be that good at adhering to a schedule

just check in when you want

[Farren]

So it looks like things have changed significantly since my last planning period - the worst now has five blue cards, and thus doesn't need mine anymore. So that means I'm freed up to do whatever, I think.

Obviously treating Kinshasa is still a thing I should do.

1) Move to Kinshasa.
2) Treat Kinshasa.

3 and 4, though ... maybe next item on the agenda should be assembling either yellow or red cards? I could play S.F and move to Tokyo, available to hand off to anyone else who gets here?

[Nancy Drew 39]

So, I think it’s my turn now, Any advice is much appreciated.

[Farren]

So, I think it’s my turn now, Any advice is much appreciated.

Right now it's my turn; your turn is next. I had my turn planned out - to give the worst a blue card, but he drew a blue card and no longer needs one. So I'm trying to figure out what our next priority is and if there's anything I can do about it - or if I should just keep heading towards hotspots. (Besides Kinshasa; that one I'm cleaning up for sure.)

[lendunistus]

I got a java update today and oracle thinks I haven't used java in over 6 months

nice

[the worst]

I'm of two minds I think.
There's a few places at 2 infections in Africa/NA which we might need you for next turn? But also getting to Tokyo would be ace.

If you end up in Tokyo my next turn could be moving, developing the blue cure, then sending someone to Tokyo to meet you (Nancy?) and grabbing the other person (George?) to help mitigate numbers over here?

Looking back over the board I definitely think it'd be ideal if you & Nancy went to Tokyo.

[Farren]

Nancy has one red card fewer, but needs one red card fewer, so it's a wash; George's abilities might be more useful in North America given that it's more of a hot zone.

I'm not really needed in the red zone right now, so apart from handing off Tokyo, I'd probably aim to head to North America after that, depending on how things develop.

[Farren]

Forgot: once Blue is cured, cleaning it up would be easier. I think that once it's cured, everyone else basically gets my level of treatment skill, while I no longer need to spend actions at all to treat. So maybe I wouldn't be needed there at all ... ?
