Yes NATO to coup Iran.

Affirmative, Tex.

Sounds good - I'll get that worked out and uploaded this evening.

Wey aye lad.

[GJK]

Just to confirm, Team USA wishes to play "Vietnam Revolts" for the Event for your Action Round 1 card play?  If so, I can process your turn right after I conduct Team USSR's turn tonight.

Turn 1, Round 1 - Soviet Play

Team USSR elects to play the card "NATO" for the Operational Points value (4).  They will be attempting a COUP in IRAN.

IRAN is a Battleground country and currently Team USA has one (1) point of influence there. IRAN has a Stability Number of two (2).

The COUP attempt works out as such:

IRAN Stability #: 2
Multiplier: x2
Total: 4

Team USSR is playing a card with four (4) OPs points.  That will be added to their die roll.  The result is:



Die of 1 + 4 totals 5

The COUP attempt in IRAN is successful.

The difference between the total needed (4) and the modified die roll (5) is one (1).  One IP from Team USA is removed from IRAN.

No IP's are added for Team USSR since the difference is now at zero with the removal of Team USA's one IP.

Team USSR is credited with conducting 4 MilOps for the turn.

DEFCON is decreased to Four (4).

Since neither of the events "Marshall Plan" nor "Warsaw Pact" have yet been played, the event for this card is not triggered. This card will be returned to the deck for a later draw.

This concludes the Soviet portion of Turn 1 Round 1.

FYI, Team USSR has conducted their Round 1 play and I've updated the main forum.  I will be posting your round 1 play a little bit later tonight.

Warmongers!

[undercovergeek]

We've been couped!

We can't get kicked out of middle east

[Staggerwing]

We need some military points as well.

Our Crack Suicide Squad has emerged victorious! All will get the Medal of the People, posthumously of course. Their families will be proud to hang this great honour on the walls of their hovels... err... homes.

Maybe next time we should send some troops to stay alive to help bolster the newly "elected" head of state...... Just saying.....  :P

Ok guys, I'm going to roll out "Vietnam Revolts" as your card play here in a bit.  You are wanting to play the card for the EVENT which will add 2 IP's to Vietnam for Team USSR and for the remainder of the turn, Team USSR will gain a bonus of 1 OPs point for any card that they choose to play for OPs in Southeast Asia.  Is that your choice?
