Sounds reasonable to me, but heading to bed now, so not sure if want to resolve now or in like 7-8 hours :P

You resolve whenever you want, good Sir!
Come writers and critics who prophesize with your pen, and keep your eyes wide the chance won't come again; but don't speak too soon for the wheel's still in spin, and there's no telling who that it's naming. For the loser now will be later to win, cause the times they are a-changin'. -- B Dylan

In spite of said "cuddling" Spain is currently down vp-wise and lost its monarch.

here's net change so far.
QuoteOttoman: +6
Spain: -1
England: +4
France: +3
Holy Roman Empire: +1
Protestants: 0

Facts will not dissuade Del from trying to get people to gang up on the guy who's lost ground.

Wow, you guys caught that clever ploy, I never thought anyone would see through that innovative ruse!  :rolleyes:

Iconoclastic Fury played on ACTS and up to Katmai to resolve it. Unless something extraordinary happens after that I will pass out the turn.

And now a major heads up. The Sultan will be off on tour through his provinces and will be unavailable periodically. In more detail I will be online Wednesday evening and Friday evening. From Saturday until the next Saturday I am off the radar completely. This need not be a big change, as I have called in a replacement who would be willing to handle the Ottomans for me during the week away. There would be no actual change for you guys, as he would just get access to my accounts. Is that okay or do you want to take a break?

Habbaku

Might be best to take a break after the end of the turn is resolved.  I can handle that tonight if everyone is done and provides winters where appropriate.

That should give us plenty of time for diplomacy, naturally.
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.

Yeah that sounds like a reasonable course of action.

Of course, it also assumes people actually post their winters.

It does, but I would assume people want to see the outcome of that galactic iconoplasm first if Katmai ever gets around to it.

Yes, it does seems like at the very least Spanish and French winters hinge on the iconoclastic fury.

Ottomans, English and HRE certainly don't need to wait...

Ottoman winter is predictable, Sokollu plus everyone to Istanbul, Dragut to Scutari.

Okay, good luck with it then. Roll four 5's and three 1's and place their keys in unrest for maximum pleasure. Remember to choose either France or Netherlands before rolling though.
