I can easily see if I have three of one color, but can't determine if I have three of a kind. This info should be avail somewhere, but I have not been able to find it. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Ahh! OK, that makes sense. And heh, I think I should have figured that out, but obviously did not. Thank you very much!

Actually, 3 of a kind is what you have when you get the three of one color...
You get 4 armies for 3 red, 6 armies for 3 green, and 8 armies for 3 blue ( I believe this is correct, it may be 4 for 3 green, and 6 for 3 red) in a flat rate game.
Having one of each color red, green and blue is a set worth 10 armies in a flat rate game.

Either one of those combinations of cards are able to be turned in

Cool. Good info and yes you are correct on the terminology. I have not yet tried a flat rate game but will at some point. I'm still playing in the kiddie pool for now :D However, I have saved that knowledge for when I do try it. Thanks Fuzzy316. I am most appreciative.

Does anyone else think flat rate is more intuitive than Escalating? Or is that just me?

Outstanding! And I just did a search on 'guide' and found a lot, many dealing with other things, but lots for me to read. That is most excellent! Thank you much.

Dang. I may have to try and convince my wife to let me send in the yearly tithe for full access. She will complain [loudly LOL] about my wanting to spend 'air bucks' or as she says "You are giving our money to AIR!" LOL But I will work on her.

Again though, thanks very much!

Oh, no problem. It's really fun, and can get really intricate if you start organizing tournaments, join a clan, etc. Good luck spending air dollars ;)! Just ask if you need anything else.
