let the cubes do what they do...doesn't matter if people are dying all over the place as long as we get everything cured. There's no people shortage.

There is a cube shortage, though.

ruthless but efficient

and the outbreak limit too, which also makes cube shortage even worse

 

[Timsup2nothin]

If we get cures maybe the cubes break against us and we lose before we win. If we don't get cures we are just gonna run out of time and lose. Seems like a pretty simple choice. We've done pretty good at limiting the damage so far. Now we go for the little germs' jugulars.

the outbreak limit is a resource to be spent

So in any case you still want to do the MJ cures black plan, correct?

 

[Timsup2nothin]

who's turn is it?

 

[Synobun]

who's turn is it?

Marijuana Joseph's.

 

[Synobun]

Black will be cured when it's my turn. I'll have a single card: Osaka. Not 100% what you guys will want me to do...

yep! At least I do

 

[Timsup2nothin]

Wait...is this the cure black by burning the free research station in Algeria right next to the one in Cairo plan, because that's not a good plan. Just go to algeirs and pick up the card, then step into Cairo. Draw your cards and burn either the yellow or the blue to be at seven. I've got two yellow and two blue so we'll get by on that. Cure black next turn is fine...black isn't gonna explode.

The current orders are to do this, so @Marcher Jovian and @Synsensa, you'll need to submit new orders to change it. I won't be back for a while.

 

[Synobun]

I'll do whatever the other three decide.

Switching to Tim's Plan:

Walk to Algiers
Grab Algiers from Syns
Walk to Cairo

What do you want me to do with my event cards?

I wouldn't spend either in case Marcher draws something good.

 

[Synobun]

Commence Operation Sitting On My Hands!

 

[Timsup2nothin]

What do you want me to do with my event cards?

Mumble some sort of spell over them that causes Marcher to draw a black card

End of Turn Nine
​

Marcher Jovian rushed south from the city of St. Petersburg, heading towards Algiers. Synsensa gave him some research he gained from studying in Algiers. Marcher Jovian headed to the lab and worked tirelessly. Hopefully they would be able to soon discover a cure for the Black Death.

[Marcher Jovian has taken the Algiers card. Marcher Jovian is now in Cairo.]

CARD DRAW

Marcher Jovian has drawn two cards:

Forecast allows you to choose the order of the top 6 cards in the infection deck. Best used right after an Epidemic to avoid an outbreak for a few turns to buy time to treat disease there.

@Marcher Jovian please choose a card to discard.
