Okay I could use some helpful tips in this game. Okay, its an 8 player, freestyle, fog of war, no spoils game with adjacent reinforcements. Its round 25 and I have patiently built up my forces without much fighting. I've been waiting to make my move when my opponents were weak to take das schlob and go from there, but now one guy(red) has taken over a good junk of the map and has a good bonus. Should i move soon and take das schlob to counter him or wait to see if the others can deal with him for a while? Any tips would be appreciated. :)

Oh and the game number is 8684334 if you need a better reference.

it is foggy so its a bit hard to tell, but the math is real simple.
red gets 34 troops a turn. you 6 get 25 (drop + one autodeploy) since you cannnot effectively get those other troops into combat quickly…

in total you 6 would get 48 where he gets 39. So the longer it takes the weaker he becomes, however you will all have to get past eachother so he is quite save…even if you all agree to attack him

there are 3 things you can do. OR Go for a bonus yourself. OR Go for an victory location so you do not loose OR wait.
I suggest you keep in the order of my suggestion.

Thanks for the advice. The thing is things have changed since the last post. One stack used to be 80, now its 43 because he used his bonus and the AA gun to bombard my troops. So i think i'll have to go for the bonus soon. Anyway thanks for the tips. :)

You dont have to worry about that, red attacked another stack. Won't be moving for a while now. Think i'll stack on the main parachute drop where he can't attack, then wait for an opportunity.
