Drake dodges around the Cape and pirates successfully, but can only snag 1 VP (and destroy a patrol).

Of course he does. Hits on 2/4 rolls, dodges all anti-pirate rolls.

You have had just obscene luck in this game.

#31: 5 / Treachery!

Message from France:
For CPs :

1-4/5 - Patronize artist.
5/5 - Influence Scotland.

Will extend impulse with 3 CP treasure :

1-2/3 - Suppress Heresy.
3/3 - Remove unrest in Paris.

Converted Paris, removed unrest in Paris and patronized Montaigne.

Off to Drakken.
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.

Well that was dumb on my part. Forgot about the freaking unrest...

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Hm?  You can always cancel the unrest by dropping a 6 to a 5.

Oh I should do that then. Will re-send file.

Dumb bit is I forgot about how all the provinces in unrest, prevented me from making the most of my conversions...

Ouch.  Just noticed that.  Yes, unrest is a double-edged sword, at best.

Only 24 Protestant spaces, by the way.  A lot are in unrest, though.

PLay Muscovy for +1 Card marker.

Burn my last treasure to convert more of England to the True Faith, and control Oporto.

I am done for the turn.
