Is the idea to build up in Asia because few players want to contest it, and then move on to an easier to defend area?
hold kamchatka to prevent an asian bonus... while defending north america...
you are dealt the hand you have, so different strategies... i always fought for austalia to start... easy to build up and defend.. one way in... second to that was south america with a piece of africa and north america to prevent migration from either... and build... hold cards til the cashing in is big and then crush others for cards and cash in...
