309 | 3 | 3 | 5 | 8 | 8 | 11 | 11 | 14 | 17 | 20 | Concentrating on a 4 castle = 27.5 points strategy. There are 9 possible combinations of 4 castle win strategies. Castle 10 appears 7 times in those 9 combinations. Castle 9 appears 6 times... etc down to castle 1 which appears once. I weighted the number of troops per castle by the relative number of times a castle appears on the four castle win strategy. 9 combinations: 10-9-8-1 10-9-7-2 10-9-6-3 10-9-5-4 10-8-7-3 10-8-6-4 10-7-6-5 9-8-7-4 9-8-6-5 normalizes to roughly 2.7 troops per castle per combination |
