You can offer her to marry William.   ;)

Actually to be perfectly honest that had been my original plan but I got distracted while at work when Berk told me to hurry up my diplo announcements.  Then I was going to beg that forgiveness be heaped on me but from reading the rules it sounded like I got only one die and Louise's eligibility rating which seemed like suicide.  I'm guessing I'll now learn that I really would have gotten to die to roll though I'm only one power...:(

There's a reason I offered Henry III to marry her.  Even with us fighting each other, I don't see the VP being gained from their marriage to be that pivotal since I'm going to lose 2-4 VPs this turn anyway.

As it stands, though, you should really marry her off to William.  Worst-case scenario, you get William whacked or lose a card, but if she marries William you get a card anyway, so...
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.

Alright well if no one minds then William and Louise are engaged. Aligned Spanish and Dutch control in Netherlands to actual status.

William and 5 regulars deploy to Lille. Henry of Navarre arrives in Rouen.

Lastly can someone check the VPs for France and Spain? I can't seem to get either to add up to what we have in ACTS. I'm sure there is something I'm overlooking. :blush:

edit: caught my French bit - forgot to count the Valois trio!

And now my long wait begins. It shall not end for some time, because we foolishly agreed to play this game with Tamas. I will know no turns, no dice rolling, no card play.

Still no play from Tamas, I note.

Hey Look! It is the Treasure Fleet!

Oh, isn't that too bad - no pirates on the map. I will just take those treasures into hand then...

Oh that reminds me. I'm going to be away for the weekend for father's day. I'll have suitable internet access but I likely won't have access to CB till Monday.

2/2: Espionage, just 1 hit, so I get to see Jeromey's hand.

I will extend once I see what he has.

One of my treasures was the Science Bonus, so I selected Dry Docks. We've learned the secret of naval construction from the Incas! Torpedo Boats for us!
