Virgin Queen PBEM Recruitment

[Berkut]

Actually, we will use a treasure. Forgot about that.

Spend a 4CP treasure to place 2 galleys in Palma.

[Berkut]

Ennglish are up, Prots need to give me one of their cards.

[ulmont]

Lame piracy attempt by Hawkins in the Guinea Coast; Hawkins moves to the Spanish Main, dragging a colony with him.

[garbon]

Ennglish are up, Prots need to give me one of their cards.

Not so bad for me, though funny the card that got sent over.

Unconvinced that Spain needs more cards.

no kidding

[garbon]

What's up with the move files, btw? I don't see montmorency in Caen / Berk and Ulmont sent move files with identical names though they both result in different game states. Am I doing something wrong?

[ulmont]

I started from tamas' file, because Berkut said "no file."

[Tamas]

AFAIK I worked with the last file before mine.

And we shouldnt forget Berkut's treasure-burning move of building those ships. It is not indicated yet.

[garbon]

He said that but then reversed himself like a minute later.

France: Play Card as Event
#76: 2 / Untimely Death [MANDATORY]

Message from France:
Remove any one of these leaders from the game: Piyale Pasha, Don John, Montmorency, Duke of Alva, Santa Cruz, Leicester, or Zrinyi. Card remains in deck each turn.

Event/CPs. Piyale Pasha falls overboard and is never heard from again.

1/2 - Montmorency + 6 to Nantes.
2/2 - Control Nantes.

Piyale Pasha has bad luck, I'm afraid.  Meanwhile, Montmorency moves to recapture Nantes.

My file includes the English move as well, so use mine immediately after Berkut's.

Off to Drakken.

[Drakken]

I really, REALLY don't like Sokollu and this many troops so close to me.

So tit-for-tat :

Use 4CP as Treasure Card. Put into the Treasure Tray.

4CP :
1/4 Move Schwendi from Pressburg to Vienna
3/4 Move Schwendi + 2 Mercs from Vienna to Szigetvar
4/4 Hire 1 Merc and place it Szigetvar.

Up to the Protestants.

[Tamas]

Why. Just why.

Goes for both of you 

[Habbaku]

So, Drakken, assuming you did actually read the rules, you'd know that treasures can't.be played by themselves (there is no such thing as a 'Treasure Card"), and surely just forgot to play the card you wanted to play before the treasure itself, right?

Holy Roman Empire: Play Card as Operations
#67: 3 / Spanish Pay Ships Seized

Message from Holy Roman Empire:
3CP :
1/3 Move Schwendi from Pressburg to Vienna
3/3 Move Schwendi + 2 Mercs from Vienna to Szigetvar

Use 4CP Treasure to extend turn. Put it back the Treasure Tray.

4CP :
2/4 - Build 1 Reg in Szigetvar
4/4 - Build Forteress in Agram

Better now?

I read the rules, but I just found the rules about how to actually use Treasures in a mere sentence at the start of the Action Phase part of the book. I had to use CTL-F on the PDF version to notice it. How about just mention the use in the Treasure rules at 6.3 instead?

[Habbaku]

No, that's not better either.  Treasures can't be used for the same type of actions as the cards used before them.  You did military actions with both...
