Could lay down a research station in Istanbul (or Baghdad, whatever) and the Medic could move Istanbul, cure red, move Moscow, and clear Moscow.

I don't recall the infection discard file getting deeper than 16 cards and we'll go to 18 so cleaning up Moscow might be a good idea.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Sure, I'm down with that.

I think that will give us a straight-up 67% chance of winning.

Gud, I just noticed - you've only got 5 Blue, you'd have to burn the Atlanta card for the cure. I'll build a Research Station in Paris so you can cure, then join me in New York.

ETA: That's a suggestion, not an order, since it's not bold.

I'm good for curing blue, I can reach St. Petersburg in two actions, cure blue at the research station there and move station to station to Atlanta.

Done. A new station is quickly built in Baghdad and then infection spreads in Mumbai, putting it on the brink. It also spreads in Lima, putting it on the brink. Finally, there is infection in Bogota.

The yellow cube situation is not good.

The Yellow cube situation is kind of awesome. We're going to look like such badasses if we pull this off.

Putting in some quick orders as I'm off to bed:

Cure Red (yay!)
Double move to Moscow
Heal Moscow. Deliver vaccine to Putin's daughter.

The Medic cures the Yellow plague, moves to Moscow and kills all the zombies. Then the Medic draws the event card Airlift and Cairo(Black).

Does the Medic want to use the Airlift before infection?
