I am red. I have 3 troops to deploy + 12 with handing in my cards. Grabbing an easy card somewhere is prefareble. I'm not able to eliminate a player. Suggest dropping most of my troops on F1.
Yellow is real strong on one flank. If yellow has a set, and he could, he could take you out. If you place most of your armies on N3 (say 9 of the 13) then you might fend him off. I would deploy 9 to n3 and then spread the rest around. Take easy n to e but don't advance.

I am red. I have 3 troops to deploy + 20 more if I hand in my cards. I'm able to eliminate yellow and may'be afterwards blue. After that works out I have to see what remains to be done.
Take yellow, then pink, then blue, then kick ass for the game. Yellow and pink have 4 cards each, so you will get at least one set with each. Just go slow, think your moves through before taking them, and stay calm. If you want help with setup before going after yellow, post again.
Cash in and go for yellow. use your E7 guys to dominate the E group counter-clockwise, if you get caught up use your F guys as reserves.
Drop 6 on A4 and loop around to knock out yellow and be aimed at blue via green's one.
deploy the rest on N3 and get yellow's sole man via Pink.
Don't cash in with yellows cards to less than having three cards, cause you'll need them when you eliminate blue. Cash in yet again after eliminating blue, go for pink. Then if possible, hit green as best as you can.
OK, one mistake was using your f1 troop to go after yellow. You should have saved them for pink. the trick is to think your moves for the next take-out, in this case, take out yellow while leaving yourself best positioned for pink. But don't take it too hard, you are still strong on the board, and there is always another game.
Thanks. Lot's of other games i'm in at the moment. And more important my ranking is finally progressing quite well. Should be able to have 1200 points at the end of the month.
