Absolutely true, if you don’t want to go down on cards, which you don’t want if you go for the tech rush into Garrisons, that’s probably a decent move. In my calculations on what you might do it just didn’t occur to me to go for the tower. I probably would have saved up some money, but then my fencer would have survived etc etc… Hard to say what would have been better.

Thoughts
so let’s see whether he hit the 33% garrison. as I expect the cadet to suicide, I’m putting fencer in elite to increase the chance for the fencer to survive as river will then only attack if he did not draw the garrison (…probably)
