QuoteOttoman: Die roll request
Request: 6-sided die x 3

3

Message from Ottoman:
Polish Election results are coming in. Bribes are as follows:

1st die = Spain, +4 (Jeanne of Navarre)
2nd die = France, +4 (Grand Tour)
3rd die = HRE, +5 (War in Persia)

The French narrowly (and historically) edge out the requisite bribes to the Polish electors.  +2 VPs for Max.
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.

Quote2 CPs from event:

1/2 - Naval move. Ulich Ali's fleet to Ionian Sea. Potential intercept.

Potential interception to Ionian Sea from Spain fails.  2nd CP was spent to send both my fleets to attack Barbary Coast.

Over to Sol to attempt to evade or fight it out.

QuoteSpain: Play Card as Event
#15: 2 / Storms [RESPONSE]
Play during another power's impulse just after they have announced they are spending CP to move, assault, initiate piracy, conduct a naval move, or start a naval transport. 1 CP is lost. For the rest of the impulse, no land unit of that power may move more than 1 space; assault, piracy, naval moves, and naval transport are prohibited OR Force any expedition to undergo a Navigation roll.

[FAQ: Effects only last for this one impulse; may not be used to stop Treachery! event.]

Message from Spain:
Storms prevent Ottoman fleet from leaving port - canceling the FIRST naval move to Ionian Sea. Habs has 1 CP to spend for non-naval things.

QuoteOttoman: Message
1 CP :

Raise cavalry in Istanbul.

QuoteSpain: Play Card as Operations
#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".

Message from Spain:
1/4: Assault Algiers

Spain: Play Card as Event
#10: 1 / Siege Engineering [COMBAT]
Gain 3 extra dice in an assault if you are the attacker. In addition, card can be revealed when an assault is being initiated on Antwerp or Rotterdam; this assault is allowed even if the defender controls the port connected to this space by inland waterway. OR Cancel the play of the Flooding card if it was just played against you as a Combat card.

[FAQ: The Flooding card does not appear in the Two-Player Tutorial, so only the first use is applicable in the Two-Player Tutorial.]

Message from Spain:
3 extra dice for Algiers assault.

Spanish have 7 dice, Ottomans 3 dice. Habs to resolve.

*suspense*

Not much suspense with your CC added.   :P

Hopefully everyone realizes what a decisive victory that siege is for Spain and stops helping him.  I'm looking at you, Tamas.

With your rolls in this game, you never know. :P

Deus Lo Vult! Algiers falls to the Spanish crusaders and Piyale Pasha's fleet is scuttled.

Spain: Message
2-4/4: Titian gets a large grant in honor of this victory.

Berkut up.

And Max should remember to discard Grand Tour before his play.

Lol, "decisive". I took one key and spent all my cards setting it up. :P

The Spanish propaganda machine will never catch up to its Turkish counterpart!

Crap, I cannot remember anything about this game, I have been way too distracted. Did I have any deals to play cards for anyone?

Speaking of cards...how in the hell did I end up with seven anyway? And how is it possible to have that many cards, and still no CPs?

Lets just play this for now...

England: Play Card as Event
#29: 2 / Muscovy Company
Place a "+1 Card" marker on your power card. You draw 1 extra card next turn (representing new revenues from trade with Muscovy). If played by England, place an additional +1 Card marker on the Turn Track on the turn two turns from the current one. England receives an extra card two turns in a row.

Message from England:
Let's punt until later!
