Coup Italy with Warsaw Pact?
We’ve got to work out how to defuse CIA and 5YP
Let’s do the maths.
Stability 2, x2 =4
Influence of card is 4.
Influence on Italy is 4
So we roll a dice.
- Italy remains in Us hands with 3 influence
- Italy remains in Us hands with 2 influence
- Italy remains in Us hands with only one influence
- All influence removes
- Italy moves to Ussr with one influence
- Italy moves to Ussr with 2 influence.
Is there a better coup target?
Or… is it worth just putting the 4 in west Germany?
Or somewhere else?
He’s got 4 on Italy? Missed that
Iraq would be a decent target
Mad question.
Do we even need to coup. We’ve got loads of influence in our hand. Would It be better to just spend this time on board state.
I don’t know
If we don’t coup, he can coup us out of places? Plus we need some military action or we lose points
Here’s my thought.
Play Warsaw Pact. Pop two influence in West Germany, and the other in South Korea.
See what he does.
Use the China card to coup next turn?
The problem with that is that he can just coup us out of West Germany
It’s stability 4, so I think it’s impossible.
4x2 =8. If he plays a influence card 4 and rolls a 6 he would remove our influence. Any other roll would leave us there.

Sorry, not much help in either replying or with ideas.
I think we need to lower DEFCON, otherwise when we play DeStal he can just coup us out. Marshall Plan will tie up Europe for him because he’ll be able to play into West Germany.
How about Red Scare to coup in France? De Gaulle will be somewhere and Socialist Governments, so taking a couple og his influence would help.
I was thinking Iran or Panama?
