Habbaku

France doesn't need piracy VPs to win.  England does and the Protestants would benefit, of course.
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.

The game will be significantly harder for France if they cannot get a few extra permanent vp from their four available sea captains. There is also the question of treasures which help those countries get cp for other things, including patronage. I cannot see why En/Fr/Pr should not at least try and divert cp to piracy in any game unless paid well not to.

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.

Right, Katmai of Orange is still up.

Solmyr's 4 mercs have not been included in a file I believe, just to remind us of that.

Well gonna play

Quote2 / Papal Bull [MANDATORY]
Immediately resolve the diplomatic status of the Papacy. Power now controlling Papacy may either: (1) Excommunicate Elizabeth, adding the "Elizabeth Excommunicated" marker to the Diplomatic Status Display OR (2) Take 7 Catholic Conversion attempts affecting spaces in France or the Netherlands OR (3) Patronize an artist or scientist of your choice from Italy as if 3 CP were spent OR (4) Retrieve Holy League from the discard pile and play it immediately as an event.

which if I understand means Garbon is the one to decide what he does with it.

They are there in my file (I have 7 mercs in Pressburg), do they not show for you?

No matter what Habbaku decides to do with the Pope, Katmai has 2 cp to spend afterwards.

Solmyr, I have received no file from you, the last one is #22 and from garbon.

Active event is something that stays in play and does not go into discards. Like the foreign wars.

Habs still needs to remove War in Poland, btw.

Katmai, also note that your 2 cp come after Habs does something with the Pope. This may be important if he decides to use it for conversion.
