[Nancy Drew 39]

I guess it’s my turn again. @Farren, @the worst, thoughts?

[GeorgeBailey]

I know you didn't ask but I atleast wanna act like I'm helpful lol.

What if you

Move to Hong Kong
Take HongKong (Discard Tehran)
Charter Cairo
Treat Cairo

You can't cure this turn but atleast you'll be removing another threat. And it sets up for a cure next turn

[Farren]

That looks like a good plan to me. Chartering to Chicago and treating it would be an option as well, but I think Cairo's the better choice - Riyadh is in danger, so picking Cairo will reduce the damage from an outbreak if Riyadh boils over before anyone can get to it.

The first two moves (Move to Hong Kong, taking my Hong Kong card) give you the cards you need to cure Red; moving to Cairo puts you close to a Research Center, where you can research the cure. You can't quite cure it this turn, so treating Cairo helps mitigate some risk from the Black disease.

[GeorgeBailey]

I realized one Quiet night can be played on other's turns.

Should I play it now and Charter to Manila>Tapei>Osaka>Treat Osaka next turn?

TW would just have to move me to him to get the card in Bogota then.

Then you'd just have to worry about black disease.

Sorry, all opinions are very welcome and appreciated. I only asked those two because both have been advising me previously.

So, does everyone agree that this is the best plan? If so, I’ll probably choose it.

I agree.

Move to Hong Kong

Charter Cairo

I was hopng to wait for duckling to weigh in but GB and Farren is good enough.

HOLD

[the worst]

Sorry, busy few days. That works for me

[Farren]

Wait, terminology clarification ...

I don't think "Charter" is the right term. Specifically, you want to play the Cairo card to move to Cairo. "Charter" could be misinterpreted as "use your Hong Kong card to move anywhere" instead of "use your Cairo card to move to Cairo specifically."

Can you please clarify it for me in the correct format?

@mod, don’t process my turn until this is clarified

duckling <3

[Farren]

I double-checked the rules.

Either "Direct Flight" to Cairo, or just "Play Cairo card to move to Cairo" will work.
"Charter" is the term that specifically means "Play a card matching the city you're in to move anywhere." Doing that here would be bad.

[Nancy Drew 39]

Move to Hong Kong
Take HongKong (Discard Tehran)
Direct flight to Cairo
Treat Cairo

Okay?

[Farren]

Looks good.

[GeorgeBailey]

yeah sorry, I keep getting those mixed up lol

[lendunistus]

Move to Hong Kong
Take HongKong (Discard Tehran)
Direct flight to Cairo
Treat Cairo

Okay?

The player cards drawn are London and Atlanta. This brings you over the 7-card hand limit. Please select a player card from your hand to discard.

[Nancy Drew 39]

So, I apparently need to discard something. Please help me out people. Thanks.

[Farren]

Don't discard anything red.

I think London's probably the safest card to discard, but as long as you don't discard a red card I don't think it matters too much at this point.

[Nancy Drew 39]

discard London

[the worst]

Good discard.
