Guess Luther can move the French chateau and Papal St Petes markers in his move file.

I assume the Pope is gathering strength to start a kick-ass counter-reformation next turn?

I'm going to play my home card to pull back treachery and hold it.  Will send out a board if no one gets there first.  Del I guess is up.

Who played Treachery this turn?

I pass. England is up.

Counter-reformation never works. I am just going to take over Italy instead.

Did you send out a file or do you want me to do it?

No need for it, really.  Ehrie can handle it.

Ehrie, please adjust the French chateaux VP by +1 and the St. Peter's CPs by 3 when you do your new file/turn.
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'm slightly concerned with the ahistorical thinking of Pope Berkster VII.

Del, I played Treachery as my Diet card earlier in the turn.

File Sent. Winter is Henry and his three merc buddies back to London.

Papacy has no winter either.

Hapsburgs still have 2 cards, and the Prots and French have 1. Is everyone passing the turn at this point?

Yes.  Del passed, Ehrie is out of cards now, Tamas said he was passing, Berkut is out of cards, I pass, Habbaku is out of cards, so that's the action phase over.

Berkut

I will do the file, but someone else needs to do the ACTS card stuff. Not me. No way, no how.
