That depends, does Max have a 3 cp card?

It also depends on whether you'll pirate Tamas' last card from him. :P

Tamas will NEVER give me a card or sink a boat, unless I'm close to winning.

You could always get three hits.

yes, 3.7% of the time assuming that tamas gets results in the worst 7.5 percentile.

I might do it for shits and giggles though...

I didn't set Solmyr up. If Max didn't have freakishly lucky dice, the English would be feasting in Rouen while I snatched up the remnants of the French army after their lost battle, and all this talk would be moot.

So let's not talk like a fucking disaster of unheard proportions was or should have been part of every plans at the start of the game :P

we're waiting on max, then pope and then luther and then you get to see what my cunning plan is.

Pass

And Tamas, I didn't need freakishly lucky dice. I just needed a slight edge and I had a slight edge on the odds.

Sigh.. this means Tamas takes Lyon and gets 6 cards. He will also get 6 cards with still another key.

OR, Max is clever enough to wait until I burn my last card, deep in enemy territory, then make a move on my bare LOC... I will have to counter that somehow.

edit: that said, if I take Lyons, the damage is rather minimal if he does that.

QuoteOttoman: Play Card as Operations
#104: 3 / Trace Italienne

Message from Ottoman:
1/3 Suleiman + Ibrahim + 9 Reg + 1 Cav move to szegedin
2/3 flag szegedin
3/3 Stack attacks Buda

Am expecting no cards and am proceeding on that assumption.

Attackers 9 Reg + 1 Cav + 2 for leader = 12 dice
Defenders 5 Reg + 1 for defender = 6 dice

I don't see how you could have taken Buda anyway, which means he gets Buda and Prague and 7 cards
