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

:yeah:

Spain offers an alliance to the HRE and the reception of a galley on loan from them. Spain also offers to marry Don Carlos to Elisabeth de Valois.

Spain offers France an alliance and the reception of two galleys on loan from them.  And also offers to accept 4 mercenaries from the HRE.
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.

I guess you are dropping the other bit? <_<

No, just forgot about it. Edited.

That's why Martinus, for all his spending on the trappings of wealth and taste, will never really have class.  He's just trying too hard to be something he isn't (an intelligent, tasteful gentleman), trying desperately to hide what he is (Polish trash with money and a severe behavioral disorder), and it shows in everything he says and does.  He's not our equal, not by a mile.

Protestants have nothing to announce and want to ask i send HRE a card after all these announcements yes?
Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son

Habbaku

Protestants are always last to announce in the diplomacy phase, Kat, and thus can only confirm, not initiate, offers.

The fact that you are giving a card is an announcement. ;)

France accepts the betrothal of Don Carlos and Elisabeth de Valois.  France also accepts the offer of an alliance and loans 2 Venetian squadrons to Spain.

France offers the hand of Mary Queen of Scots to Charles II.

HRE accepts an alliance with Spain, loans them a galley, and gives them 4 mercs.

HRE accepts the marriage of Charles II and Mary of Scots.

HRE will accept a card draw from the Protestants.

Delirium

Okay, only Protestants left to announce, and it seems they will be happy with just the gift of a card. Declarations of war up next, the Sultan has none at this point. Spain?

If the Emperor wants to resolve the Mary - Charles marriage in the meantime he is welcome to do so.

Delirium

Okay, so anybody who is allowed to be part of diplomacy willing to shed some ligth on these strange proceedings? To the Sultan it looks like Spain has received a lot of gifts for nothing in return in order to fight the Ottoman Empire, while France can win the game at will. What goes on here?

Charles and Mary fail to produce healthy heirs. The Stuarts will never inherit England.
