	Aspects to consider:		Aspects to consider:
	* Prefer starting spots in smaller bonuses over those in large ones. Often a 3er completed in turn 1 is worth more than a 5er in turn 3.

Often a 3er completed in turn 1 is worth more than a 5er in turn 3. Aim for those bonuses first that can be completed in the least amount of turns.
	* Don't just look for the starting bonus itself, also take further expansion possibilities into consideration. What will your income be in turn 3, 4 or 5?		* Don't just look for the starting bonus itself, also take further expansion possibilities into consideration. What will your income be in turn 3, 4 or 5?
	* Sometimes even larger bonuses can be completed in a single turn when there are 2 or 3 adjacent starting locations. However, you cannot be sure you get all 2 or 3 of these spots, so in those cases you always need a plan B.		* Sometimes even larger bonuses can be completed in a single turn when there are 2 or 3 adjacent starting locations.

	* Avoid bonuses with wastelands, at least in the beginning.		* Avoid bonuses with [[wastelands]], at least in the beginning.
	* Bonuses only pay off if they generate more income than you lost armies taking them. Example: A bonus worth 4 with 10 ~~neutrals~~ in it will cost you (neutrals x defensive kill rate) armies, say 10 x 0.7 = ~7 armies on average. It will pay off in the 2nd turn already. Taking a bonus worth 4 with 20 neutrals you may lose ~14 armies, so it will only pay off if you can hold it for at least 4 turns.		* Bonuses only pay off if they generate more income than you lost armies taking them.

It will pay off in the 2nd turn already. Taking a bonus worth 4 with 20 neutrals you may lose ~14 armies, so it will only pay off if you can hold it for at least 4 turns.
	* Always place enough picks to avoid ending up with random spots. In a 1v1 with 3 starting spots you need 6 picks. In a 2v2 with 2 starting spots you need at least 6 picks as well, better 8 in case your teammate forgets about coordinating his picks with yours.		* Always place enough picks to avoid ending up with random spots.
