To clarify, I think that when you're clearly on offense as you were right there, you shouldn't be focused on blocking my movement. In general, lots of movement favors the player with the initiative, which in this circumstance was clearly you. I'm the one who needs to be buying time against your offense, and thus am the one who needs to block everything. Consider what the best possible outcome for me was -- if I had bounced Tyrolia with Bohemia and still gotten the bounce in Warsaw, everything stalls out and I get to build right in the thick of the major conflict zone of the game. Stalling in that spot significantly favors me.

I think you're right that Bohemia is the best move you can make if you want to advance your position instead of stalling me out, and that moving to Warsaw is the best way to stall me out. (So I guess your second premise wasn't actually wrong, it was just a good quip opportunity for me to make.) But I think your strategic assessment -- that blocking was good for you and bad for me -- was off.
