The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

#47: 4 / Belgic Confession
Take 8 Protestant Conversion attempts that can affect spaces in the Netherlands. The first die is automatically a "6"; the rest are rolled randomly. Treat all rolls of "3" as if they were "4".

You're up again, actually.  That was your move after Sol passing, then Tamas raised a regular, then I did my move (and forgot to place a cavalry in Istanbul while I was at it).

OK...
#28: 2 / Morisco Revolt
Playable if Ottoman is At War with Spain. Eliminate all land units in the Granada space, place Granada into unrest, and add the 2 strength Ottoman counter marked as "Morisco" to that space. See 23.1 for usage of this unit. Place unrest markers on 2 unoccupied spaces within 2 spaces of Granada. If the Morisco counter is in a Spanish home space at start of any Winter Phase, the Ottoman places unrest markers on 2 unoccupied spaces within 2 of the Morisco unit. Remove card from deck and Morisco unit from the game if the unit is eliminated or if the war between the Ottoman and Spain ends.

[FAQ: Players may wish to leave this card out near Spain until the Morisco unit has been removed from the game to remind players of the Winter Phase effect. If the Ottoman is inactive in a 4-player game, England should spread unrest from this event.]

Message from England:
Build 1r in York

Passing out the turn.

I think everyone's passing at this point.  Need winters (and a decision from Tamas).

Ottoman Winter:

Army in Coron to Istanbul.

Murat will attempt to stay at sea.

Maximus

I don't believe I have a winter action.

Solmyr

Spanish winter: Alva+1m to Madrid, 3r from Oran to Madrid, fleet to Cagliari.

Tamas

No winter, and I'll be taking my mercs

Tamas

FYI while I'll might be able to do some diplomacy if the stars align well, don't expect much activity from me for the next 3 days.

I don't think he can do that, he can either return to the colony or off-map.

None of the colonies produce anything for turn 3.

Uploaded file with winter and beginning of turn 3. To do: Habs to choose his science result and Berkut to grab the treasure from South Atlantic into his hand (though that can probably be done later). After that we can deal cards.

Hand sizes for turn 3:

Ottomans: 7=4+1 admin+2 saved
Spain: 7=5+1 admin+1 saved
England: 6=3+1 admin+2 saved
France: 5=4+1 saved
HRE: 5=4+1 saved
Prots: 4 (because Rouen is in unrest)
