Congress of Vienna
A battlefield advantage can disappear at the negotiating table; commit cards only after weighing their military value against the issue you may need to win in diplomacy.
Gruntz
Capture requires surviving the reply; use vehicles to threaten the counters that would otherwise remove your scoring infantry.
Port Arthur
Japan should turn early mobility into safe landing windows, while Russia should preserve enough force to make every sea crossing dangerous rather than chasing a single decisive battle.
Border States
Use face-up blocks to tell a believable story, reserve the ambush for a battle the opponent must contest, and value influence colors by the current state tracks rather than raw cube count.
A Very Civil Whist
Draft for both the immediate trick and the next hand, protect the war track that is closest to breaking, and avoid spending your strongest card before the opponent commits.
