France suppresses heresy, converts Marseilles and Paris.  Unrest to Marseilles.

Drakken's up.
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.

Oh, something magical will happen, allright.

I wouldn't go that far.  You need 2 CPs to purge La Rochelle of unrest, then need to pick up another key.  If Berkut's attack on Lyons fails the first assault, you still have a shot at it.  Let's not forget that you still have 5 cards + your 5 CP home card.

Yeah and I'm now at war with 3 powers. :P

I'm provisionally casting a win for Ulmont unless something happens to Drake.

My turn impulse will come sometime tomorrow.

I wouldn't consider that magical - just odd.

You still have to place an Unrest marker somewhere on my home space.

I wouldn't go that far.  Berkut still has a shot at an English Catholic Rebellion and York is currently unoccupied.

And I still have a shot, too, by the way. It's marvelous how people forget I have my own reasons for doing what I do.

My moves make sense. You people are just rushing to conclusion based on some very limited information.

Anyway, file sent. Maybe on his impulse Garbon's gonna decide which of my city explodes in riot and decides to go anabaptist on me.

As you may read on the card, when Holy Roman Intercession is played each "1" on a five dice roll allows the player being targeted by a declaration of war to place an Unrest marker on one of HRE's home space.

Here is what I rolled :

Message from Holy Roman Empire:
Unrest for Holy Roman Intercession

Thus, you may place one Unrest marker on one of my home space. Hence why I badger you over this, because it's the only thing needed before we move on.
