Pandemic the Board Game (Play-by-Forum)

I have a black and a red. The black goes to MJ. I have a red that I can give to G1K so long as he stays where he is. Then he'll have 4 reds and needs just one more for a cure, which he can do in Cairo.

You'll actually need to be in Osaka to do that. Remember, only Tim can just chuck cards.

yeah I think we may have made a mistake going to St. P instead of Algiers but then again we didn't know we would draw that autotransfer card. I *think* the Baghdad route is the right way to go?

Exactly. I don't think it was a mistake but it's also impossible to know the future.

TS is right, I need my card to fly to Australia

What's wrong Syn?

 

[Synobun]

I'll let the smarter folks tell me what to do.

 

[Golden1Knight]

Hmm we might need a Station on Oceania so I can get out of there faster when I'm finished cleaning up

 

[Marcher Jovian]

yeah so maybe Algiers is the way to go.
I think burning both events is fineish cuz it lets us eradicate black super quickly and frees up Syn to travel to wherever and get on the ball at like Lagos or Sydney.

No, you've already noticed several rules and your research station placement is great. I just wanted you to see the alternate advantage. I honestly have no idea what you should do on your turn...

Lets see what happens after MJ's turn then.

Right now, Syn should burn that event and give a black card to MJ, then MJ will use his turn to move to Algiers and get the final card, then cure the black plague. Right?

Syn I'll need approval from you for events usage and trading Algiers if that's the path you guys choose.

That can work. If you do this, then once all black cubes are removed from the board, they cannot come back. (The disease will be eradicated.)

Syn can pass anyone's card with the event.

 

[Golden1Knight]

Syn can pass anyone's card.

Oh, great then. We can cure the black plague on this turn.

 

[Golden1Knight]

Syn should pass Tim's card then, if he is ok with that.

 

[Golden1Knight]

MJ needs two actions to get to Algiers, one to make the trade and then the last one to cure the disease. Nice.

@Timsup2nothin: May I yoink your Chennai card?

 

[Synobun]

If Tim swings by and approves:

Event Card: Transfer Tim's Chennai card to MJ.

Event Card: Establish a Research Station in Algiers.

MJ, you can submit your orders, subject to Tim's approval of the card transfer.
