Here Languish Stands game thread

I'll cancel it then, as this is a fairly standard Papal play and I was saving Wartburg for something like that.

Then do your turn so I can do mine.

[sbr]

All good, sorry about that.  I don't know if you saw my edit before but I got confused by the double negative in the card description. 

[Solmyr]

Oran becomes a pirate haven. Nothing personal Tamas, I made a deal to play that card.

[sbr]

So I will just delete the file I made.  That means the next person needs to add France's VP again.

[Solmyr]

The file I just sent contains all the necessary adjustments, Viking only needs to add a second corsair to Oran which I forgot.

[Viking]

playing jon zapolya. I'll adjust Sol's file.

3 / John Zapolya
If the Buda space is not under siege, add 4 regulars of the power that controls Buda to that space. If Hungary still controls Buda, add Hungarian regulars to that space (up to the limit of the counter mix).

Once thing we haven't been including is the +2 VP I got for defeating Hungary. I'll add the second corsair.

[Viking]

don't I also need to add a second VP for chateuax?

Edit: Checked the journal and he only played chateaux this turn, not last.

Sadly, I needed the 5 CP to get Metz.  A questionable play, I admit.

[Tamas]

Solmyr I hope you are getting a monster event from Ottomans because this whole turn you were busy playing as the second Ottoman player.

And quite successful you were at it, since now, combined with the treacherous Hungarian pretender Zapolya, the Ottoman collapse has not only been averted, but you also helped him quickly build up his fleet.

Oh well, looks like I will have to count on those electorate VPs instead

[Tamas]

Spend 4 CP on building new military units. These units may be built in any space you control that is not under siege. The spaces need not be home spaces like usual.

2 mercs to Tunis
1 merc to Augsburg
1 merc to Mainz

Prior to the Schmalkaldic League
Other powers are also under these restrictions:
• They may not declare war on the Protestant.
• Their units may not move or retreat into an electorate.

To me, that sounds like non-Protestant units cannot be in an electorate, period. This thread seems to confirm this: http://boardgamegeek.com/thread/738207/protestants-the-electorate-display-and-winter

That link doesn't confirm anything.

I need to redo my move then. I might end up playing an other card, this changes my whole play. I'll be back soon with my correct move.

[Viking]

Nuremberg, Kassel and Brunswick have pretty much the same effect.

No that is not permissible. Try as you all might, there is NO WAY the Hapsburgs can get units into the electorates prior to the SL event.

I think that pretty much settles it.
