Actually, I'm not sure you get Edinburgh after all. Reading the rules, since Scotland's alliance does not change, it does not go through the deactivate/activate process. The event card also doesn't say anything about Edinburgh being transferred, it only places Scottish regulars there. Anyone know for sure?


I do. See FAQ (I think posted on previous page of thread when Szmik asked)

QuoteStep 4(Activate):
If the check was triggered by Scottish Lords Rebel, the procedure is always the same:
1. If result is alliance with England or the Protestant and Mary Queen of Scots is alive in Scotland she becomes
captured in England.
2. All Scottish spaces come under control of the power who wins the diplomacy roll.
3. All units in Scotland not allied with the controlling power are displaced. Units allied to the controlling power
remain in place.
4. Remove all Scottish troops from the map and replace with 2 Scottish regulars in Edinburgh.

Corrections: English units go to York, not Berwick, and I only built 1 regular in Augsburg.

I don't like the FAQ resolution of the matter, regardless of the fact I'm playing English  :mad:

Not that I have better idea.  :hmm:

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.

Well I think it makes sense that the Scottish Lords rebelling is the one case that changes up the key status. Better than having the key changes with every check (which is what I'd originally thought happened in this game) as that'd make it pretty much worthless to try and keep Scotland.

These are some freakishly early storms. Normally get them in winter when no foliage on trees.  This last set of storms has been dumping rain causing me to build an ark with all the flooding going on.

So if this is dead, delete the game so it doesn't clog up my ACTS list. And start a new one. :P
