442 | 7 | 9 | 11 | 13 | 15 | 16 | 1 | 26 | 1 | 1 | I used one soldier for the 7, 9, and 10 castle. If someone chose not to attack a given castle, it is worth my deployment of at least one soldier there. But then, I figured that castles 10, 9, and 8 would see the highest deployments. My goal is to get to 28 points... so even if I lose castles 7, 9, and 10, I can still win by winning every other castle (with one VP to spare). I have a lot of excess soldiers to win all of these. I chose to fight hard for castle #8, figuring there was a decent "bang for your buck" return on that castle. So I distributed my remaining 97 soldiers, giving slightly more to the higher-worth castles, and prayed! |
