Carnelian

[Upon entering your team's cloud of mist, you find yourselves transported to a bare stone room with a single stone table and chairs. (The chairs have been bolted to the floor.) On the table are a 16 red stones, 8 blue stones, and a 2 black stones. There are also indentations around the edge of the table, each one marked in the color of one of the teams.]

Nor Ruby, nor Tiger's Eye.

All right.

Collecting teams we will not attack will narrow our targets significantly.

Let's split our blue stones among those.

[ nod ]

Two for Turquoise. Two for Sapphire. Two for Coral. One for Ruby. One for Tiger's Eye.

Ooor we could also give them to a random team, then steal them back. Like Teir suggested.

[ I... would rather defend Ruby, but that is good game sense, and Nahadoth can take care of herself. Nodding, just a little reluctantly. ]

Half measures won't win this game. All of our attacks should be concentrated on one team -- as a show of single-mindedness, if there is one round, and with aim of eliminating an attacker, if there are multiple rounds.
