# Turn 17 · bob

Turns are zero-based. Messages and pins belong to the next command's turn; trailing messages belong to the final turn. A partner's overflow discard stays in the interrupted turn. Each event and model call below has its own anchor (`#e<seq>`, `#d-<id>`).

[Previous turn](/games/game-03/turns/16.md) · [Next turn](/games/game-03/turns/18.md) · [All turns](/games/game-03/turns/index.md) · [Interactive board](/games/game-03/replay.html#event-136) · [Game](/games/game-03/summary.md)

Board before the first command: state `135` in [states.jsonl](/games/game-03/states.jsonl). After the last command: state `144` in [states.jsonl](/games/game-03/states.jsonl). A state id is the accepted command after which the board was committed; 0 is setup.

## Accepted events

### #136 · alice · msg {#e136}

> 5/8 now + yellow supply 9 — we must land cures in the next ~2 turns. RED is the one we can guarantee: DO the HK handoff this turn — Ops Expert teleport Toronto→Hong Kong (discard Milan/Atlanta blue, 1 action), shareGive me Hong Kong(red) (1 action), then drive HK→HCMC (1 move). You cannot cure black THIS turn regardless (draw is end-of-turn, after actions), so relocating costs you zero tempo — and HCMC is a station for your black cure anyway. That sews up RED; I take HK→5/5→cure red at HCMC next turn. Your 3 black + grinding continues fine from HCMC. Go — don't detour for cubes.

### #137 · bob · msg {#e137}

> Doing the handoff NOW: ops-teleport Toronto→Hong Kong (discard Milan blue), give you Hong Kong(red) → you're 5/5, then I drive HK→HCMC to grind black. Cure RED next turn — that banks cure #3.
> 
> CRITICAL forecast: after RED we still need BLACK (only I collect it: 3/5, need 2 draws). But two live loss clocks now: outbreaks 5/8 (3 from death) AND yellow supply 9 with a 12-cube yellow cluster. We may not get many more turns. So after you cure red, HELP ME ON BLACK: you hold Algiers+Cairo (black) — if a meeting in either is ever cheap, hand one over; otherwise dump everything non-red and, if you draw black, keep it to funnel. Two black draws = win. Meanwhile nobody can reach the African yellow cluster — just race.

### #140 · bob · msg {#e140}

> RED is complete — you're 5/5. On the forced discard: shed SAO PAULO (yellow, dead) and KEEP ALL FIVE RED. Then drive HK→HCMC and discoverCure RED — that banks cure #3.
> 
> After that only BLACK remains (me: 3/5, need 2 draws). You'll be free — help black if cheap (you hold Algiers/Cairo black; a meet in either, or drawing+holding black, could seal it). We're 5/8 with yellow supply 9, so speed matters. I'm driving to HCMC now to grind black.

### #142 · alice · msg {#e142}

> RED is now 5/5 in my hand — I cure it at HCMC on my turn (drive HK→HCMC + discoverCure). Your 2 remaining actions: drive HK→HCMC to get onto the station and end there — that's your black-cure site. Keep all 3 black, dump Taipei/Osaka(red) freely as you draw. BLACK is the final cure (you 3/5, 5 in deck — it'll come in 1-3 draws). After red lands I'll help: I hold Algiers+Cairo (black); I'll hand one over if a cheap meet appears (HK/HCMC area), otherwise I'll draw+hold black as backup. 5/8, yellow supply 9 — speed. Don't detour for cubes.
