Sweden's up.

Turkey build Mustafa in Constantinople, the Spanish raised the garrison of Barcelona.
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.

Sweden builds 2 CUs in Stockholm.

I may wish to preempt France, but Denmark can go.

Denmark built a CU in Stavenger and tried (and failed) to find the Swedish squadron.

Pre-empt?

No preempt.

France played Emperor Commands to get a +1 key.

England played a 2 CP card to flag Ardennes and move some fleets around.

Austria is up - and they still need to draw a card.

I played my reserve last turn. Drew a card from PARLIAMENT, now have two.

Played one, one left, moved Charles to Languedoc and flagged Languedoc.

Russia up.

#49: 3 / Russian Winter

Message from Russia:
3/3 Kutuzov's Army Group (Kutuzov, Bagration, Benningsen 16CU) move from Linz to Munich.

Lannes can evade, Napoleon can Intercept.

Same situation as last time. Lannes can evade, Napoleon can intercept.

Though, what Prussia is doing maneuvering towards Warsaw seems slightly disconcerting.

Napoleon's "lucky" dice allowed him to intercept into Munich.  Off to Viking to play any combat cards.

#33: 3 / General's Health

Message from Russia:
Napoleon has bad health. Napoleon's battle rating is voided.

Interception roll for napoleon is now modified by +0 rather than +4

+1 for friendly dutchy, -1 for crossing a pass and +0 for Napoleon. Net +0

Result now 8 rather than 12. Interception fails, Napoleon still in Tyrol.

Napoleon's dice not lucky enough. A nasty case of Gout has left Napoleon still standing in Tyrol, and Lannes unfortunately friendless.

Playing no cards. Habs can play his defensive cards and roll the battle.

Yeah, I think not.  Lannes evades to Wurtemburg.

Yeah, it's like it's mathematically sound or something...   :huh:

Relax, he has a +3 to his evasion, to he only needs a 6. You are doing fine - one of these days he will roll poorly and someone will go crunch.

Or he will be forced to pull everyone together and go crunch the Really Grand Amree.

I've had General's health ready for a successfull evasion/interception that can fail for a while now. Any combination of dice is equally probable. It's just frustrating to see my plans scuppered...

BTW I want some Austrian backup on my advance through Bavaria.

Next turn I think it would be great if the Russian fleet could go kick the shit out of the Danes.
