- Back your frontier. A tile heals (+1/turn per allied neighbor) only if its upkeep is paid; isolated salients rot. Expand in connected blobs, not thin spikes.
- Balance the treasury. Only full C+O+Ge+S sets convert efficiently; lopsided piles are dead weight. Trade for what you lack — but deals are non-binding, so price in betrayal.
- Win hearts cheaply. The auction is second-price: bid your true value; you pay the runner-up's price. Track rivals' likely energy.
- Exploit is scorched earth. A one-time windfall that permanently scars the tile and frays shared coherence. Use it to deny or to cash out a losing position, not as your main engine.
