Given the card I got from Del, I am going to withdraw my offer of peace with France.

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

I fixed the Revolt in Egypt play.  Things like that should be played as Active Events, not just "events".
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.

Given the number of times I played the card I felt it would count as "active".

File sent to deal with the revolt as well as a corrected Habsburg SD.

Papacy still needs to rejigger their SD and France still needs to come to terms with its own SD and a potential peace with the Pope.

Meanwhile, unless Ehrie thinks that stuff will affect him, England is up.

Perfectly legal play.

QuoteAnnouncements can be made as individual items, or as a group of agreements that need to be ratified together. All powers involved in an agreement that follow later in Impulse Order must confirm all the contents of this declaration when it is their turn in the Impulse Order. If they do not confirm the full deal, NONE of the items in the agreement take effect. If the agreement is confirmed by all parties, the players immediately change the game state by updating diplomatic status, marking and moving loaned naval squadrons, returning army leaders, changing political control of spaces, drawing random cards, and exchanging mercenaries.

In some alternate universe where Del didn't fuck up his play of the League turn 1, you would have drawn it on turn 2.  For now, no difference, it stays in Del's hand.

Nope, no fleets. You should invade.

I think we excel in talking.

Seems everything is in order, except Berk's SD. Then it's England.

No SD. I have to defend Rome from the suddenly incredibly aggressive French.

You can see the lie of his claim to desire a "white peace".

Oops, I thought France had said they had no SD, they should get a chance to declare SD right before yours.

Good.  Ehrie, please perform France's spring when you do your own file.

You also cannot SD with more troops than your leader can command.
