call me crazy - but I think you're going to struggle for these +30 centres in year one Tom...

Looks like he's gonna lead the charge though!

well no kidding I didn't get the centers in the Spring turn, duhhhhhh
I will get to thirty in the Fall turn of course!
I have some tricks up my sleeve and should be able to do so with great ease. Admittedly this will be harder than a face to face game where I would say "hey what's that" and point away from the board as I dump my extra markers on the map, but I think I can do something or other....

Out of interest, do we really need to wait till next Tuesday before we finish the turn ?

my guess is because it was a long holiday weekend (monday holiday)
I know I was MUCH quieter (though not silent) over that time and am just getting back into things. I doubt I need until Next Tuesday but if we are to have Tuesday deadlines, no way can we make today!

This is the reason. I wanted to give you guys a longer S1901 deadline, but couldn't do it and get onto a Tuesday deadline cycle without having an extremely long S1901 (it would have been today).

I'm also running a Speed Circuit race, so attempting to not overload on Redscape on any one day.

It's not a problem for me, but then again, I think we'll see some of these johnny-come-early types withering on the vine of defeat pretty soon.

Isn't it interesting that only Israel seems interested in that Turkestan outpost! Too bad the ocean does not wrap around into the Indian, or I might be tempted! Well, maybe later. Until then, I'll have to be satisfied with my brilliantly mundane opening that is sure to mislead and the opposition.

don't worry about Israel taking Turkmenistan, I got that covered as well. I'm pretty sure that will be one of this turns 30 centers! (well, 27 NEW centers gained that is, I'm not THAT good)
