I'm going to make a file as soon as the deployments are out.  Though, I suppose I could make one now that all the builds are done...
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.

I think everything's good, so I sent a file out.  Please double-check it.

Austria's up.

Everyone should draw their cards ASAP and determine if they want to mulligan or not.

I sent out a file, Russia is up.

I drew Europe Exhausted and considered doing a mulligan, but then I looked at France's 9 cards and figured I'm fucked anyway and rather than playing with 2 cards I decided to bite the bullet.

Attacked and took Zagreb and then built units.

Del, normally what you do is declare the attack, then decalre any combat cards you want to use, then let the other player resolve (or state that they are not playing cards and you can resolve).

Especially when fighting France and their ginormous hand - they often do want to play cards.

On other news, I appreciate Prussia's forbearance in staying neutral given the fall through of the deal to bring them in on the side of truth and justice. Lets us not forget that they can still help out against France, even while neutral, through play of cards effecting the  diplomatic track and of course events.

It appears Viking played his round, but didn't make a file...

That puts grumbler up next.  Grumbler, please add a Russian squadron to St. Petersburg (under a Naval Build : 4 marker) when you do your move.

Mostly I just figured he wouldn't bother with a single unit...

Okay, my move is in, with the Russian build.  With just the one leader, I didn't bother with deployment stuff.

How does one make comments in the cyberboard file?  I could click in the comments section, but it would not record anything.

To make comments in Cyberboard, just click the button on the interface that looks like a hand gripping a pen (or hit CTRL + M) while making a file.  You'll get a pop-up box that will allow you to type messages as you see fit (and roll dice, but we're using ACTS for all dice). 

After you're done, just hit the "Send" or "Send&Close" button to log it into the file.

France: Turkey: Play random Strategy card

#13: 6 / Ireland Revolts

RED: Must be played as Event

Message from France:
Turkey random play.

Turkey shows their true colors.  1 French regular added to all non-key spaces in Ireland and, in addition, for every space not controlled by Britain during the interphase, the British lose 1 CP from their reinforcements.

The Irish revolt and will likely take the entire island and declare their independence (though they are wearing curiously French-colored uniforms; must be imports).

Elsewhere, Spanish troops under Castanos go to the aid of the French allies in Italy, reaching the outskirts of Rome.

Sweden's up.

Sweden marches on Christiana, successfully driving the Danes out of the city and claiming it for their own.

The Danes played their reserve to delay for time and draw a random card.

The Irish rebels successfully took Dublin, driving the last remnants of Empire from their shores.  Long live a free and prosperous Ireland!

On the continent, meanwhile, Napoleon marches on Milan to wrest it from Charles' hands.

Del may evade, intercept with John or fight it out all regular-like.

Charles whooped Castanos's ass and sent him back to Marseilles. He then politely declined to intercept Napoleon in Milan.

The English thank their Austrian allies.

We played Admiralty to draw two cards.

England is going to end up speding a good chunk of this turn cleaning up the mess in Ireland. And the American war. This is not good.

Does anyone have a "Get Wellington for free" card? I could use one of those...
