Right. It would totally make sense for me to do that risky dash. You guys made the choice regarding Protestants when you ganged up on me. Now live with it.

Not me, I offered you peace but you refused, preferring to fight me at sea rather than letting me pirate the pope.

Yes. Took one for the team, protecting the Pope, from your rampant selfishness. :P

Play Home Card for CP and finish English Bible Translation.

I then proceeded to get kicked in the crotch 6 straight times on conversion attempts.

Message from Ottoman:
Sigh, bad dice mean I have to play this for CP

1/2 assault vienna 5 dice vs 3 dice
2/2 build 1 Cav in istanbul

I'm forced to waste a perfectly good event to try and get vienna before it is too late. I'm rolling the dice, tamas already declined to use cards on the last assault which had no result.

FYI I will be suing the Ottomans next turn which will give them 3VPs since I do need Vienna, after England felt like robbing me a key (France was sort of understandable).

You do realize that Algiers is an ottoman home space don't you?

Shrewsbury should convert, no? You rolled a 6 at +1 vs the Papal plain 6. And you win ties in target zone anyway (Paul only wins ties in Counter-Ref).

Well shit, I fucked that up pretty well, and getting Shrewsbury would have changed everything.

I didn't realize that Paul only won ties during C-R attempts.  I thought the +1 meant I got an extra die in my 6 reformation attempts, but then I forgot to use that extra die.  :D

So had I paid attention and remembered the rules I would have gotten Shrewsbury (7 v 6), Strasburg (5 v 4), and Amsterdam (5 v 4) on my original roles.  I would have made at least 2 more conversion attempts in England had I gotten Shrewsbury, but it was my mistake and it would probably be too much to ask to redo it.*

*And yes that is my subtle way of asking.

OK.  The rolls for Shrewsbury and Lincoln will stay.  I will make 4 more attempts, hopefully, all in England.

Alright redid my conversions.  I also moved the markers I forgot to move when I rage-closed the map after my turn.
