shore fire way to win caravan every time.

thought id share with you how i win at caravan every time.

fill your deck with only 30 cards. ( the more cards you have the less chance you have of getting the ones you want.

make sure you only have k, q, j, 10, 9, 6 , and 4 aces. ( i have 5 tens, four 6's, four 9's, 5 queens, 4 jacks, 4 kings.) probably better to have 5 kings rather than queens? ( you could have any cards to replace the q's, j's aces or 9's i suppose but if something goes wrong they're probably the best cards to have. especially jacks.

and what you want to do is before you have put down your first three cards, it allows you to remove any card from your hand and recieve a new one without counting as a turn
so you can remove all the bad cards and be left with the cards you want.
the cards you want are tens kings and sixes. this allowes you to play a ten as the base card, then play a king next to the ten for the double and then place a six under to make 26.

the thing is that your opponent is going to have the exact same cards as you however because you removed all the crappy ones during the throw out stage you now have the upper hand.
place three ten cards down for the base and then begin to follow my strategy, next, take a look at what ever track your opponent is building and build your caravans on the other two tracks.
as soon as you get both on 26 you will win.


hopefully this is easy enough to follow along, and im sure most of you already do this but just for the few people that are struggling and therefore never play it, it really is a good source of caps.
and i actually find it funner than the main casino games ( because i always loose. and 0 or 00 comes up wayyyy to much in roulette haha.)

I must have been pretty damn lucky at the normal casino games then. I won 30,000 caps in a game of slots. :foodndrink: :celebration:

Nice strategy. The 10-King-6 and 10-King-5-Ace is what I always shoot for, but I've never properly stacked the deck. TBH, I'm still confused on the Caravan deck screen. I usually end up just playing Random. I'll have to check it out again.
