I don't think it'll matter by that point. Either we get all the cures live and win, or we don't and lose. I think we've got enough time, but just barely.

It doesn't sound like an actual real computer virus, but "suddenly maybe-hardware failure" didn't really fit the punchline. :P

Those first two are 100% critical; I'm pretty sure this will be your last turn and if we don't cure Red now, we'll never get another opportunity.

Treating Riyadh is also important since it's at three cubes, but since Black's cured it'll only take one Treat Disease action there to remove all three cubes.

I can't think of anything else productive to do with your last action, though. If you can skip it, I'd do so. If you can't, I'd just move to Atlanta. That way you're still at a research station, so the worst can teleport to where you are to save time if needed.

- Move to Riyadh
- Cure Red Disease
- Treat Riyadh
- ???

Sorry!

Was busy yesterday.

I was thinking

1. Move to Manila
2. Charter to Kinshasa
3. Treat Disease
4. Treat Disease

Isn't yellow the likeliest to make us lose? I think it we get unlucky and get an outbreak there we're screwed.

Nancy could also Airlift Farren on my turn to take care of a 3 cube city for extra measures. (maybe Algiers?)

I don't think Kinshasa can threaten us anymore. For that matter, neither can Tokyo, Sydney, Osaka, or Algiers.

The infection deck has 48 cards; there are 48 different cities. One of each would be a logical breakdown. Normally repeats show up courtesy of the EPIDEMIC cards, which put the discard pile back on top of the infection deck - but we're out of EPIDEMIC cards. So anything in the infection discard deck can't hurt us.

Either way, the game ends on the worst's next turn. He can cure Yellow - he has the cards and can get to a research station easily - and that means all four diseases will be cured and we win. If that weren't true, we'd lose because he wouldn't be able to draw two cards.

So I don't think it matters what you do this turn. the worst's suggested turn - combined with your idea of having Nancy Airlift me to Algiers - would provide maximum protection against existing three-cube threats. Your suggested turn would provide maximum protection against a chain-EPIDEMIC draw in yellow. Go with whatever sounds aesthetically pleasing to you. :)

Yeah you're right.

It's pretty hard to lose right now, so I'll go with TW's suggestion. We're so close to end game it's negligible.

@Nancy
if you see this before Lend does the turn, use your airdrop to move Farren to Algiers.
