1-2/5 Suppress heresy in France
Wow...abject failure at that go. Let's try again...

3-4/5 Supress Heresy in France
Alright a little more like it. La Rochelle, Nantes and Rouen convert. Last hit dropped as we've hit the minimum number of Protestant spaces in France.

5/5 - Add one diplomatic influence to Venice

[garbon]

He sent his own file.

Oh just saw it. Oh well. I put everything he did in.

Using PotA home card to patronize Bellaso and draw a card.

Over to Katmai.

[Delirium]

Wow, the Spanish hand was really not that good. On a different note, my random discard was unfortunate...

Katmai, since you're new here, let me strongly recommend a minimum of one Preach Sermon actions to increase the number of Protestant spaces (don't know if you're aware of the auto-win feature if you have 9 or less spaces, leaving France or Spain with an early win).

still it served him well, but dice didn't

[Solmyr]

Question, if someone else plays a Protestant conversion event, do they get to decide which spaces are converted?

[katmai]

Thanks Del, was already planning on that, just trying to decide what crappy cards to start with

[Delirium]

Unless otherwise specified in the event text, the assumption is that the player of the event chooses all effects, unless there is a very basic rule I have missed somewhere.

[katmai]

Let's see if i get this right

So two minor and one major conversion, my noob question is not sure reading Protestant Conversion Conditions

b) The space is adjacent to a space under Protestant religious
influence (even if across a pass) or is a port connected to a sea
zone that contains other ports under Protestant religious influence.
The adjacent space or port may not be in unrest and must
have been Protestant at the start of this step of the procedure.

where I can use these conversions.

[garbon]

Alkmaar, Amsterdam, Brielle, Flushing and Dunkirk border North Sea and thus have access to Protestant influence from England.

Ghent is protestant and thus grants access to anything around it. Munster (in HRE) is also Protestant so Zutphen is eligible.

You can then use 6 that to spread influence as first step* or you can save it till 2nd step to allow you to convert a province that has a catholic unit present.

*As an example if you used 6 to convert Zutphen in first step, then you'd be able to convert Arnhem and Gronigen in next step.  Alternatively if you save till 2nd step, you can use on Antwerp or Brussels.

Ah thanks, i didn't realize the sea port was taken so liberally. And damn thanks for heads up, i didn't even notice Ghent's affilation

[Delirium]

I recommend using the '6' on Antwerp. 

[katmai]

Alkmaar, Amsterdam, Brielle, Flushing and Dunkirk border North Sea and thus have access to Protestant influence from England.

So if understanding correctly using minor conversions on Flushing & Brielle and the major to flip Antwerp.

Heh Del, great minds think alike.....ours too!

Well it is specifically because both London and Norwich border and they are by default Protestant.

[katmai]

Yeah i wasn't realizing it could be across the Sea to foreign ports, mea culpa. Oh and if my move is valid I'll tackle the CB updating my moves and send it to Del.
