France is up.
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 think my SD was skipped, not that it is ever very important.

1 merc and 3 regulars from Rome to Modena. I will update when the file gets around to me.

You had nothing to announce, so I assumed you had no SD. But who am I to know what gets announced in this game?  :P

No worries.

Tamas plays a 2 CP card for an explorer.

Pope excommunicates Cranmer and calls a debate in England on the matter.

Aleander is up against Coverdale, and things go badly right from the start, with Coverdale babbling like Sarah Palin on a bad day, and loses 4-0.

Whats that smell?

Coverdale is BBQed.

I get to flip 5 spaces, since that is my debaters bonus.

Ow.  Finished the French New Testament, got next to nowhere with the rolls (Besancon and Grenoble), started on the French bible.  Over to Habbaku.

Glad to see my good friend the Pope is doing well. :)

I did a thorough vp check, I think everything is good now. Well, not good, in that I am last, but still.

Dang, Habs is going to be cranky today. I am going to turn off google mail chat.

Nope, I'm doing quite fine.  In fact, it's actually refreshing to finally see the board gang up on me.  If I had been allowed to walk away with the game it wouldn't have been all that fun.

Besides, I've played multiple games where I've had every negative event hit me and still won quite nicely, as you may recall...

My 4 garrison regulars from my home keys are removed, along with the 1 cavalry in Belgrade, to satisfy the War in Persia.

My play :

QuoteOttoman: Play Card as Operations

#30: 2 / Tercios

Message from Ottoman:
Playing for CPs :

1/2 - Raise 1 cavalry in Istanbul.
2/2 - Raise 1 cavalry in Athens.

File coming shortly.  Del's up.
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.

Funny you should say that.  <_<

Played a 3 cp card to destroy the last corsair, won 3 to 2 with 18 dice vs 4. Lost a squadron.  <_<

The remaining two cp saw Alva to Algiers with 4+1 troopers.

England is up.

You're making the assumption that I won't fight a field battle when you naval land at Algiers.

You are wrong.

Any CCs?

No one has ganged up on you to stop you from winning except me and Berk. The rest are just bribed, so don't get too excited.

But, of course, greasing their palms in order to play events like "Haha, lose 5 troops" is exactly what the huge Habsburg hand size is for.

Well, with the dice rolling thus far, I can't possibly win the battle anyway, so no, no cards.
