Sniper move up, shoot heavy - 4 wits
Runner move between moved soldier and heavy, kill heavy - 3 wits
Bottom red soldier move and kill sniper - 2 wits
Spawn runner and move to where left most red soldier used to be - 0 wits

The most solid move so far! Could blue possibly defend against this?

my move on powee's puzzle would be move both soldiers to kill the farthest blue soldier from the spawn. then kill soldier next to it with sniper and runner.

Blue might survive. Heavy moves and hits the lower 4HP soldier, spawn a new soldier and finish of the 1HP soldier. THen sniper moves in to kill red's sniper.

Should be a bunch of bad options for blue

Looks pretty good too, but what about spawning a soldier to move and kill the 4HP soldier (the one that killed blue's sniper), and then the other soldier moves to kill red's sniper. Blue might survive this?

I shouldn't have lost that game. I had to make multiple mistakes to lose and somehow I did. I have no idea what I was thinking with all that excessive medic and sniper movement.

Yup, this was what I had in mind back then. I thought I was at a really deep hole. LOL
