In 2 player games it is like essential to over expand.

Very true, it is essential to work the game in your favor aggressively in a two player game. But, in a 3 or more player game you have a lot of hurdles to jump inorder to get there. The last hurdle is a 3-player situation. So the question is, how do you get to the final two with out weakening yourself too much and give yourself the best chance to win?

To Europa: This is a hard question. Maybe the answer is in some of the other threads.

Yes, the answer is specific to the situation and we can find them in the other threads. I think a few of the other posts have addressed this situation. I think what I would like to have for mind is a clear set of maxims, rules or bullet points that I can refer to in these general situations. Such as: Whenever you are in a three man game, always eliminate one player unless you may weaken yourself too much in hte process; whever in a three man game, keep the balance of power unless you have a change to eliminate the strongest player . . . things like that. General ideas always need to be tailored to the specific circumstance, but I wonder what are those general rules?
