Nantes and Boulogne convert.

3-4/5 2 Mercs in Rouen

You also left Henry of Navarre owned by you.   ;)

#47: 4 / Belgic Confession

Message from France:
For CPs :

1/4 - 4 troops in Orleans to Paris.
2-3/4 - Raise 2 mercenaries in Paris.
4/4 - Henry, Montmorency, 5 regulars and 5 mercenaries to Rouen.

The might of the French army sallies forth to smash the Protestant scum.

Garbon may attempt to avoid battle with some troops to another space with or without Navarre or may simply choose to fight.  His call.
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.

Navarre says let's fight.

On ownership - I wonder how that happened as I definitely didn't intend that! :D

You probably moved him into your hand in the CB at some point--anything sent there becomes owned.

An almost predictably-lackluster battle.  1 French hit vs. 2 Protestant hits.  2/1 mercenaries die, respectively.

Off to Drakken.

Yep that's it. Good to know for next turn when Maurice arrives.

#77: 2 / Portuguese Attack

Message from France:
For CPs :

1/2 - Raise a mercenary in Paris.
2/2 - Paris stack to Rouen.

Garbon may fight, avoid battle or retreat into the fortifications.

Either way, Drakken's up.

The battle was lopsided the other way this time--glory to France!

French get 3 hits to 0 Protestant--remaining Protestants may retreat to Caen or withdraw into the fortifications.

Can't help it that the King of France decides he has nothing better to do but persecute the True Faith!

Game-related note, but why would I ever want to flee Rouen seeing as how its the only near protestant owned fortress? Wouldn't I just be gearing up for Henri to be eliminated in winter when his troop attrits away? Might as well try and get some hits in.
