I believe on the second one you convert 3 spaces as you got 3 hits.

That is true! So 3rd will be Lille

Fleet comes out, Ottomans build a galley.

Don John captures Algiers and sets sail for Tunis.

Off to Szmik.
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.

Scottish lords look rather rebellious, btw. Just saying.

Message from England:
I don't see Treasure Fleet roll, while Hawkins sits in North Atlantic which is 1 of possible areas fleet may appear.
Therefore a roll for placement. Only 1-2 matters anyway

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.

Didn't see Hawkins hanging out beneath that phantom colony marker, so...off to the Treasure Fleet roll.

Hawkins gets a hit against the Fleet.  1 VP or a treasure, Szmik?

Colony disappears. 2 CP spent on planting operative in Holy Roman court.

Why are you laughing that your colony got destroyed? :unsure:

Yes, it's almost like he didn't know I'd saved that card until he placed a colony (given that the Protestants don't look like they'll ever be colonizing).

Speaking of which, Kat, you're up.

I didn't know you had the card, but chances were someone would get it. Oh, well
