GFF Risk 8 - Japan

Methinks my brother should wait to wake up after train rides before summoning enormous moths.

Nothing personal, but I'll use an Energy Boost to finish off the day with a surprise attack in the last 4 minutes. If my attacks on Shizuoka and Aichi fail, I re-attack them. Otherwise (or if Dull doesn't want a simple contingency) I attack Mie and Shiga.

The battle for the north has been won, troops! Now we march upon the south!

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I too am wary of the Great Green Shogun, so I purchase one of Godzilla's affordable Wrath-On-Demand™ packages and unleash him on Aomori, Iwate, Akita. I'd then like to launch attacks from that territory on Hokkaido A, Iwate, Miyagi.

No hard feelings, but Tritoch's practically won the game, and I'm up for a little fun before the inevitable

FELIPE NO

Results for the end of Day 4:

nuttyturnip summoned the wrath of Mothra to attack Tritoch and Ryuu, but remember, Tritoch has a Satellite Defense up for that day, however, Mothra is feeling very vengeful, so Ryuu's territory have been transferred over to nuttyturnip's auspices, making Ryuu the eighth person eliminated from the game. nutty receives 24 gil
The battle for Yamaguchi is tied! nutty and orion should resubmit numbers.
nutty was also unable to conquer Kumamoto

And so Day 5 begins. The game will end after Day 6 on midnight CST August 25

First result for the day:

orion_mk3 tried summon Godzilla, but it wouldn't respond in kind. Rethink your strategy.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

That's what I get for not reading the whole thread. So, how does Godzilla fail outright? Unless Tritoch has Defenses up again today, or orion doesn't have enough money, he should have taken at least 1 country.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Does that mean I lost the pre-Mothra battles for Ryuu's two territories? Mothra should only be able to take those if I didn't capture them first. Also, my Spies from yesterday should still be in effect for the Mie/Shiga attacks.

How ya doing, buddy?

Damn, he got satellite defenses up already? That was fast.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

It's pretty clear what that means.

Mie and Shiga are still under Day 4.

Yes, by amazing stroke of luck, you didn't win those battles, but I chose not to mention that anyway for brevity's sake.

Final New Weapon of the Day:

King Ghidorah - Godzilla's most-hated arch-nemesis, use it to conquer three prefectures of your choice (any three), and submit two more that may also fall under its power. However, you have a 50/50 chance of getting those extra two prefectures. Otherwise, King Ghidorah might turn its wrath on you and render two of your prefectures (randomly chosen) neutral. Satellite Defense cannot protect against King Ghidorah.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Guess I've no choice but to turn on Nutty and IC.

I'll use a tank on Oita to close up that pocket, and re-direct that Godzilla to Ehime, Kochi, Hiroshima.

EDIT:
And--why not--let's send that King Ghidorah to Aomori, Iwate, Akita. The contingency territories for KG are Hokkaido A, Iwate, assuming the lech doesn't turn on me.

Most amazing jew boots

nuttyturnip won Yamaguchi
orion enroaches upon Shikoku and made Identity Crisis the ninth person to be eliminated from the game. He wins a Tank, Energy Boost, and 44 gil, and restores his status as Daimyo.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Might as well use that free tank to retake Yamaguchi before I head to work!

FELIPE NO

Aww...

Anyway, great game, Dullenplain. It was a lot of fun, and summoning Godzilla was just lol.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I was hoping to systematically move through Nutty and then confront Orion, but it appears that we'll be meeting a little earlier than expected thanks to this suspiciously convenient item.

I'm using King Ghidorah on Fukuoka, Oita, and Saga. Provided it doesn't turn against me, also Miyazaki and Kagashima.

Following that, I'm using my Washed-Up Idol on nuttyturnip.

Spoiler:

I can't help but laugh maniacally every time I look at the spreadsheet.

How ya doing, buddy?

Could we get an update on the chart so I know exactly what orion has? I want to mass an all out assault, but I'm confused at the moment.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Preemptive attacks on Tottori, Okayama.

I'd also like to use an Energy Tank to launch counter-attacks on Fukuoka, Oita, Saga. That should leave me with one move left for now, barring add'l tank usage.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Unfortunately for the both of you, King Ghidorah was not pleased with your requests, and while it begrudgingly gave you the requested three prefectures, it decided to have some fun. It lays its eyes on the island of Shikoku and goes on a rampage. The entire island of Shikoku has been rendered neutral. (Ehime, Kochi, Tokushima, and Kanagawa for those who don't know)

orion_mk3 is no longer a Daimyo, and Tritoch has been demoted to a Daimyo.

Ugh . . . next time I manage this game (if there is a next time), better bookkeeping.

Y'all are making things really hectic for me, so I just keep making some interesting things to throw bits around . . . heh.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I use my 4 turns today to annex Ehime, Kochi, Kanagawa, and Tokushima.

How ya doing, buddy?

Not close enough for Kochi. The other three are yours.

Umm...if I annexed the first 3, then that would put me adjacent to Kochi, therefore, I should be able to annex that as well.

FELIPE NO

If you like to put it that way, in sequential order.

Most amazing jew boots

I do everything sequentially, except for eating and making sweet love to the newly liberated ladies.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

That diabolical three-headed miscreant

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Any chance of getting a map edit tonight? It's still last night's map, which isn't terribly useful when trying to attack. =/

Also, I'm still not sure why the Mie and Shiga attacks are marked as only me needing to send in numbers.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Guess no update's forthcoming, eh? Put my last attack toward Hokkaido A, and I'll call it a night.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

There is now, map included. Sorry for the tardiness.

nuttyturnip has fended off orion_mk3's attacks
nuttyturnip protected Shiga from invasion
Tritoch invades and occupies Mie

I was speaking idiomatically.

I attempted to use a Tank on Okinawa, but it failed due to Satellite Defenses.
