Russia does not throw a card.
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

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.

Wow, tied for the lead and they are going to throw the game.

Still, it would be pretty awesome to see grumbler win.

You aren't going to win if the game ends this turn either.

Everyone needs their cards. That is the nature of the game.

Anyway, Prussia is up to declare if they will sacrifice a card to end the game early.

If they do, they have a 1/3 chance of the win, or 1/6 if France tosses in a card.

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.

Yes, I did know it was going to happen, but I was holding out hope that it wouldn't happen.

You're not going to fucking win if Prussia wins, either, are you?

Will they help Viking understand the card-sacrifice mechanism?

Not pictured : The Irish rebellion still going strong by holding half of the island; Sweden's capture of Norway while the Danes defiantly resist in Copenhagen; the Russian Czar missing the forest for the trees.

I'm dropping a card to increase the peace roll from 6 to 5-6

Fortunately, I am not so ignorant of how the game works that I will not also ditch one.  Per ACTS, the roll came up a '5', so the show goes on for one more turn.

Now we go to the camp change phase.  Anyone that wishes to switch camps may do so with my blessing.

Please accept or decline ASAP.

No joining the Imperial camp this turn, per Swedish card play.

Moving right along...
