OK, how do we stop an early Prot win?

I'm still like 38 spaces away from a win, guys.

Sure, of course YOU would say that!

38 spaces is nothing. The Prots are one of the players most capable of a Turn 3/4 win, and I've never seen them start this strong. We are almost certainly doomed.

Well, this not only changes things, but probably borks me good and plenty too.

You are.  But what's going to happen is that the League is going to go down, Del is going to start raping me, and then Habbaku is going to take Suleiman to Vienna and victory.

Too conventional.

Mark my words - we will see Ottomans in Italy before this is all over.

Oh only noticed it now. Would play otherwise. Count me in for the next game. :)

Did you ever apologize for accusing me of cheating?

Prophecy!
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.

What game was that in...I thought I read all the Languish HIS threads, and I don't recall a game with both Martinus and Berkut?

There is Languish chatting, and there are PBEM games posted on Languish.  -_-

If I ever said something that I felt needed apologizing for.

I take that as a no.

Don't really remember, just remember Marty stating at some point that he thought I was cheating.

France is very worried seeing the spreading heresy in Germany. To help stem their tide, I make the following offer: a truce with the Habsburg-Papacy coalition. As part of the deal, I would commit valuable French troops for peacekeeping operations in the unruly city of Metz.

To sum up where we are:

We are waiting for Ehrie to decide, in his English way, whether he will accept any deals from the Chin.

Then we see if Ehrie will accept any deals from the Franks.

Both of those should have happened before the Diet, so as not to be influenced by Luther's Great Victory, but you can't have everything.

After that, the remainder of the Spring Deployments (we have Ottomans, and unsurprisingly there will be no Protestant Spring Deployment), and then we're off to the impulse races.
