1269 | 0 | 0 | 11 | 14 | 0 | 21 | 25 | 29 | 0 | 0 | I’ve narrowed down the gameplay to around 14 possibly optimal plays. This is one of them. There are 33 possible exactly 28points to win strategies. This one is 8-7-6-4-3. Allocated by relative castle value. Castle/28*100. Here’s the list of 9, allocate by taking castle/28*100: 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 10-6-5-4-3 8-7-6-4-3 The other 5 are semi suboptimal vs the 9 but forms the “rock,paper,scissor”: ExpectedValue: castle/55*100 EvenAcross: 10/castle Ultimate: castle/28*100+1 for castle 8,9,10 Lucky7: castle/28*100 for castles 1 to 7 Troll: 47,53 on castle 9 and 10 respectively. At least one of these strategies will do well depending on the market. And the market will shift around these strategies depending on the amount of trolldom. |
