Reviving this a bit, I think that a 6 IPC bid is sufficent. Two infantry to Egy is often enough.
bids generally don’t allow more than 1 unit to a territory….
at least, that is what i’ve always been told
(a max of 1 unit to a territory, and you must have units in that territory already)
That’s a ‘house rule’ from the Triple A lobby, from what I understand. Usually bid limits are listed with how the bidding works (i.e. all cash (no immediate units), 1 unit per territory, etc).
In other words, bid rules are all over the board.
