Tamas is up and may legally pass this round.   :P
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.

Okay, if you're heading out I'll do a file with our explorers. If Tamas attempted passing from last round is any indication he'll probably pass legitimately this round. Berkut could probably do his move.
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

Yeah I passed. :P As a matter of fact, I think I'll keep passing.

Ulmont, please redo your Reformation attempts from the French Bible.  Bibles do not give bonus dice, they give a +1 DRM to the dice being rolled.  5s become 6s, 1s become 2s, etc.

Oh, right, goddammit.  I was thinking of the Printing Press.  Will redo now.

QuotePlaying home card for CPs :

1-2/5 - Build 2 corsairs in Scutari.
3/5 - Naval move, 2 corsairs to Adriatic Sea.
4-5/5 - Pirate the Papacy in the Adriatic Sea.

Pirates didn't turn up any loot this time around, alas.

Del's up.

Algiers fell. Moved fleets to block in pirates. Built a merc in Vienna. Moved Charles to attack Buda. Forgot to adjust vp in the file.

England: Play Card as Event
#87: 2 / Mercenaries Demand Pay

Message from England:
Target power loses all mercenaries unless they discard a card immediately. Value of card determines number of mercenaries kept (target power chooses which are kept): 1 CP=2 mercs; 2 CP=4 mercs; 3 CP=6 mercs; 4 CP=10 mercs; 5 or 6 CP=all mercs retained.

All this standing around has made French mercs rather cranky.


Target is Tamas. I don't have a board handy, but I think he has three or 4 mercs in Francis's stack.

Tamas

I have 3 mercs total, all with my king. I let them die, then, start of my round, I invoke the Sultan to honor our deal and give me my 4 mercs into Boulogne. After which I pass.
