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 gave you a card since you'll win otherwise. You'll probably win anyway, especially since you got the good card I had left.

I pass my round, so it's England now.

Did you do a file with the card? The last one I have is from habs.

I don't recall a Delirium file with the card.  I will pass as well (passing out), since I can't do anything useful with my last card.

Berkut

No, he doesn't need to, it is in ACTS, duh.

Played Marburg for 5 CPs.

Moved a squadron, then CRed in Germany twice to flip 3 spaces.

Hey Del, don't forget that you can take piracy hits on your fleet...

But Habs only said vp or card, so I assumed they weren't adjacent, never looked at the map.

If I could have killed a fleet I want to do so and have the card back.
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

They weren't adjacent, which is why I didn't offer.  I also wouldn't have even tried piracy with 5 squadrons adjacent.   ;)

I see, Berk was talking about future piracy, check.

Message from Ottoman:
No effect. 4 piracy dice against the Habsburgs.

One more hit against the Habsburgs.  Either a card or VP is mine.

Last CP will be used to move the fleet to Barbary Coast, where Del may intercept if he truly wishes.

Played Peasants War to place 5 unrest markers in Germany.

The peasants are tired of the elitist heathens keeping them from their True Faith!

Prot spaces down to 27.

Del, please tell me you saved some nice 1 and 2 CP cards to give to the pirates?

Habsburg fleet failed to evade from a stand-up naval battle, resulting in 2 of their squadrons getting sunk.

Need to know where the fleet is retreating to.  I have 1 CP left.

This is going to come down to the piracy roll against the helpless French. :(

A port that borders both that and the sea area south of it.
