What becomes of the two-way game?

The choice seems to be whether to attack with 6/2* 24/22 or prime with 24/18. Backgame-preserving plays like 7/5 7/3 or 7/1 seem like a good way to lose. I get burnt occasionally by this, but I generally try to win going forward when I have the chance rather than sticking with the backgame,

I like the attack better. It throws white off balance, and I don't see many shakes that force her to leave a blot next roll (23 and 34) so blue will be running off one of the anchors soon anyway.

I see that 7/5 6/2* activates a second builder. But it weakens the prime and makes it harder for blue to flood the outfield so I'll stick with 24/22 6/2*
