Spain's got treasure, and Prague is pacified as Calvinist agitators are hanged in cages in front of the Cathedral.

#38: 2 / Treasure Fleet [MANDATORY]

Message from Holy Roman Empire:
Spain's treasure lifeline appears somewhere from the Colonies. Berkut and Ulmont may resolve it.

CPs:
1/2 : 1 Merc added in Vienna
2/2 : Unrest removed in Prague.

Berkut

No pirates in any attack zones, so I just get to bring home two treasures.

You forgot to add a treasure before picking 2 to take back.
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.

And again the Virgin Queen PBEM hits a snag...

#70: 3 / Tridentine Catechism

Message from Protestants:
1/3 Remove unrest from Rouen
2-3/3 2 CP Rebellion in Orleans. Orleans and Dijon switch to Protestant control. 1 Huguenot regular in Orleans.

Not sure if it was intentional that all of those treasure number markers were spread around the board, so I left them. :D

I will likely extend either way, so I will do the file.

Epic fail.

Extend to draw a card with a treasure, file sent.

So I take Ulmont has won the game?

A strange game. The only winning move is not to play. How about a nice game of chess?

No, not yet.  There are a number of ways I could get knocked back down.
