Re: Province Defense - first post....
There have been times when I found it handy to spend all of my money that turn driving the PD of one province to the top. It was the only way to quickly do damage to an incoming army. And it acted as quite a surprise. Totally ruined his plans for the next 10 turns. But I must admit that its a better tactic than a strategy. It makes for a good surprise card, but its not worth doing it alot once the other guy knows it might happen.
The only time Ive seriously used PD as part of an overall strategy with when playing Giants as a defensive strategy. Jotunheim gets good benefits from PD that doesnt need food or upkeep.
