English SD posted - Hawkins and 2 regulars to Berwick.  England really starts T1 at war with 0 land leaders?  WTF?

My failure notice was slightly less comprehensible:

I posted how to do the HRE preference earlier.  Drakken can do that with his SD, assuming he groks my instructions.

French SD two regulars to Metz.
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.

England can choose to have their sea captains on the map in Europe - they can just do this as their SD though, I would think.

Right, wanted to point this out for reference:

Quote from: Article 1010. SPRING DEPLOYMENT
The third phase of each turn is Spring Deployment. At this time, each major power undertakes a series of activities to prepare for the upcoming Action Phase. Some steps in the procedure apply to only one power; skip those that do not apply to you. The first player in Impulse Order completes all the below steps before the next player in Impulse Order begins this process.
...
1. Treasure Fleet Escorts...[Spain only]
2. English Sea Captain Placement...[England only]
3. Holy Roman Religious Preference...[HRE only, turn 1 of a 6-player game only]
4. Place Arriving Leaders...
5. Choose Home Card...[generally only after turn 1]
6. Move Formation from Capital...[if you have a capital]

So yes, English Sea Captain Placement is part of SD.

Heh, it appears my secondary e-mail address was taken down after 3 months of inactivity, and ACTS is automaticall sending stuff to both addresses. So I removed the secondary one.

Protestants have no possible SD.  Just waiting on the HRE (Drakken) and then we're off to Tamas for his first play.

Yep, I'm pretty silent.

You will have my SD (and my religious preference) tonight, I'm currently at work and I have no CB here.

Is it my turn, or France's turn? I'm confused as I haven't received any file from him yet.

Also, where do I see which Army Leaders I can deploy? Where do I record my Religious Preference?

:frusty:

You're confused if it's your turn or not because, despite my spring deployment being posted and me stating in a post that it's your turn to SD, you haven't received a file?

Instructions for recording your Religious Preference were also given in a previous post.  By me.  I have to wonder if I'm on ignore at this point.

As for army leaders, you may deploy any that are in your capital.  The only one that meets that criterion is Schwendi, who is in Vienna.

Also seems a little surreal. I've already rough ideas of my moves planned out and I certainly don't have CB at work. :D

:)

If it helps, I can post a screenshot of the map in the thread every so often to help plot things out.  Wouldn't be able to do it all the time as I make some plays in ACTS from my phone (and, thus, have no CB access either), but it'd at least keep people abreast without CB.

Finally found the post, got it. I made my choice. It's the second time I use CB after my PoG game with Berkut.

Schwendl and 2 Regulars moved to Pressburg. HRE Religious Preference made and added on HRE Power Card.

File has been sent to all, hopefully everything works.
