I played the event Corn Riots, France must regroup 5 units/squadrons. Sending no file. Russia can't go until Habs has decided on which to remove.
Come writers and critics who prophesize with your pen, and keep your eyes wide the chance won't come again; but don't speak too soon for the wheel's still in spin, and there's no telling who that it's naming. For the loser now will be later to win, cause the times they are a-changin'. -- B Dylan

Habbaku

The entirety of the French navy will head to regroup.  I'll let Viking handle that in his own file.

Russia's up.
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 play Royal Marriage and move Spain, two boxes. Habbaku can decide to play cards or not.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

You are a good man viking.

What about me, I removed the entire French navy?   :frog:

I paid the cost to be the boss...of the Spanish.  Guerre de Course and Up From the Ranks discarded (9 CPs) to maintain the alliance).

Yes, yes you did. That was very nice as well.

Can someone remove the Irish?

Speaking of the Irish - I would like to point out that rather than deal with them last turn, I spent all my cards landing troops in Europe. Which got me nothing, I might add - but did force France to spend CPs dealing with Belgium instead of invading, oh, say Russia?

I would like viking to consider that when he decides what shall be done with Parliament. I think using it to help clean up the Irish would be a fine idea.

That is one worthy use of it, I agree.

I also think it was a genuinely good move to land in Europe rather than focus on Ireland, which would have been exactly what Habs would have wanted you to do.  :bowler:

Indeed, although losing 4 CPs worht of reinforcements is not a good thing.

Agreed, Berkut cleverly avoided falling into Hab's cunning plan. Kudos!

I'll listen to any and all suggestions.

Done with my turn.  Took Nassau with the Prussians,Valencia with the Ottomans.

Valencia's not quite taken--you don't have the CPs remaining to flag it, but the landing is successful.

Spain counters by raising some foreign battalions and exiled citizens, under the guidance of Blake, in Madrid.

Sweden's up.
