RISK Domination VII: Finished!!

[Joe Republic]

I hate having 3 infantry sets:

 

(Joe, your system makes it hard to do this)

That's 11 troops, plus 2 extra on Louisiana.

Let's start off by putting them all on Louisiana.  Louisiana-Texas, stop when Gustaf has either 1 or 2 men left in Texas, and wait for further orders.

Reinforcements


A set of cards has been traded in, worth 4 battalions.  Furthermore, the Louisiana card has produced an additional 2 battalions, which have been deployed there.

All 11 battalions have been deployed in Louisiana, where there are now 14 in total.




Attacks


Louisiana invades Texas (Gustaf) with 13 battalions available to attack, while 9 battalions will defend.

(Joe, your system makes it hard to do this)

In what way?  I'm keen to make things easier, but I'll need to know how.

[Joe Republic]

The RISK cards.  It's hard to keep track of them.  Anyway...

Ok, I have an idea of how to make things simpler.  I'll implement it immediately.
