Pandemic the Board Game (Play-by-Forum)

Don't worry. This game is much more difficult to communicate just because it's over forum. You all are doing great - better than some players I've taught IRL.
 
Believe it or not, you're doing pretty solid right now.

An Epidemic could ruin your day, but Forecast can save it too. :)
 
In MJ's shoes I would discard Lima, I think we are better positioned for a red cure and there are plenty of yellow cards out there
 
Chuck the yellow card Marcher.

Syns get to Osaka.

I do something about whatever disaster is about to fall.

G1K flies to Osaka on the Baghdad card, grabs the Osaka card, goes to Hong Kong

Marcher goes to Hong Kong and delivers red card if needed-card transfer black to Marcher and cure

Syn goes to a good spot in yellow land.

I go to Hong Kong and give Marcher blue cards

G1K cures red and starts vacuuming cubes before we lose

Marcher cures Blue and beats feet to yellow land

we all get yellow cards to Marcher

Marcher cures yellow and we win on Marcher's third turn from now...is this a viable time line?

Sounds like a great plan

Winning 3 turns from now depends on how much the world will burn while we are making our moves lol
 
As long as it doesn't burn enough to meet a loss condition I'm fine with it. Like if the blood flood exterminates Australia but we don't run out of red cubes that's basically fine.
 
INFECTION DRAW

While staying the city of Shangai, Timsup2nothin noticed a rapid rise in Blood Flood cases. He suspects that it may be due to a large amount of people fleeing from Bangkok via plane, where some cases have also been reported. [Bangkok and Shangai each receive one red cube.]

You are the Researcher.

You can do the Share Knowledge action and give any card without that card matching your current city. (i.e. if you are in the same city, you can pass any card to another player. Ignore the Lab Challenge text.)

You are the Medic.
role-medic-no-lab-jpg.563888


You have two special abilites:
1. You remove all cubes of one color when treating disease, even when the disease is not cured.
2. If a disease is cured, all cubes of that color are automatically removed when you are in a city (and therefore no more cubes can be placed there while you stay there).

A1: Drive to Cairo.
A2: Shuttle flight to Hong Kong.
A3:: Drive to Osaka.
A4: Treat disease.

Osaka is a two leg drive so you'll be too tired for disease treating, but that's okay. Just don't drown.
