4 CP into the English new Testament
1 mercenary in Koln.

Protestants will pass out the turn unless Del absentmindedly wanders onto an electorate.

Over to Habbaku's Ottomans.

Ottomans pass for the moment.  Off to the Habsburgs.
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.

Our glorious Empire recruits three mercenaries in Vienna and sends the turn on to Pope Berkster VII since both England and France pass.
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

And the Pope finally burns some books with competency, converting Linz, Graz and Trieste back to Christ.

I believe that brings it back to the Ottomans.

If the play gets around to me twice more, my next 2 plays are both 1-CP cards into St. Petes.

Okay, I built two fleets and sent out a file, so it's back to Habbaku again after that St Petes effort.

Uh, the turn is nearing the end I believe. Did Tamas ever send someone his vital last card play?

Okay, implementing everything. The order of the previous impulse was:

Habs passing
I build fleets
England passing
France building a merc
Pope playing a 1 cp card to St Pete's
ulmont passes

This impulse so far is

Habs passes

I played my home card to explore, colonize and move my fleet to the Tyrrhenian Sea.

The Pope plays his second 1 cp card to St Pete's (is not included in my file).

Back to the Ottomans.
