Just a quick update on the troop counts (not including Marauders) for Round 3.
Though it looks like blabla11 has already covered everything.

11 - 38260
22 - 73175
31 - 0
36 - 0
42 - 545

After you covered all of Blue's cells that we had access to, we were lucky that they actually attacked in Round 4. Otherwise, we would be
looking at a much smaller score going forward. Be that as it may,,,, we definitely should take 11, 22, 33, and 43 here in Round 5. Some of the other
cells (especially 42) we should probably wait until we verify that Blue is attacking in Round 5, before we take them.

Here are the troop counts for Round 5:

11 - 2830
13 - 8370
22 - ? (I missed the troop count for 22. It may be pretty large, but the Flag would be better on 43.)
31 - 4465
33 - 82530
42 - 1305
43 - 99590
51 - 6590
56 - 110
62 - 9200
63 - 5030
64 - 0
65 - 0

Here are the troop counts for Round 5.

I believe that you should place the Flag on 22, just in case they try once more to take something meaningful in Round 5.

lujtg74 still has a Raw troop count of 596255. So, I should be able to handle everything?

I believe that Blue has already expended 6-% to 70% of their Raw troops count. (HItest88 drew a lot out of them in Round 4.) I repeatedly tit-for-tatted
them on several cells. They did seem to be smart enough to only expend their troops on attacking this Round, not defending. So, I did end up wasting
some troops thinking that they might defend late. But actually I did not see them send troops in the last 5 minutes. Whomever was there for them either
ran out of troops or just gave up on taking anything.

You can place troops as you see fit. HItest88 will try to take 21 and defend Red's home cells that they currently have. Hopefully we will eliminate them
from the board. Of the cells below only 12 and 22 are contested with Red. Though we might have to defend 13, but with 56505 there probably it will be alright.

12 - 230 (or maybe it was 160 or 260?)
22 - 61530
33 - 34990
35 - 19495
36 - 40
44 - 49195
53 - 17415
55 - 60
56 - 45
62 - 7745
64 - 75

Raw troop counts please, if you have the chance before you go to bed.

Surprisingly, I am going to ask for Raw Troop counts very early.

This is due to the end of the Event and the end of the Season coming up. So, I need a lot of lead time to see if there are any
actions I need to take to equalize the Guilds for Season 42 - War 1.

Any actions that I need to take, need to be taken before the end of War 7. (Since, most teams may need to skip collecting
their medals for the War.

I will write up my plans for the end of the Season soon. We may be sort of screwed and I may need to collect 100K worth of
medals when I may only need 20K or less. Partly this depends on what I see going on in the next few Rounds of War 7. (not
with us, but with some of the other Guilds that are in front of us, or just behind us)

There has been 3 Guilds (4 actually) that have bought their way in front of us in the last couple of days. Hence, our drop out
of the top 20.

TheBeast and Nepal spent some 550K to 650K worth of medals a couple of days ago and are currently in 6th and 12th place respecitively
are our of range for us to catch them. (We could but it would be a waste of Medals.)

"Absolution" spent something like 450K to 500K worth of medals a couple of days ago and are currently in 20th place. But only 9K
ahead of us. We are almost for sure going to pass them up by around Round 7, unless they spend more medals. But if they win their
War they will have the medals to pass us back up after the War is over.

S60cool spent 177K medals at the end of War 6 and are in 19th place and are 10K ahead of us. We should also pass them us by around Round 8.
But similar to "Absolution" if they win their War, they will have the Medals to pass us back up after the end of War 7.

So, unless something changes, it is likely that I will have to collect saluki85"s ~100K medals in order for us to end up in the top 20.

I will figure this all out later.
