Languishing some more.

[Solmyr]

Just saying for the future, as by the rules you have to specify the target region first.

Played Muscovy Company for an extra card next turn.

No file, could the next person drop that marker for me please?

[Solmyr]

Tamas is next.

[Tamas]

put two influence on Venice. File is being sent.

Milan falls to HRE assault; HRE remnants march on Genoa.  I assume Solmyr retreats behind the walls.

File sent; Max up.

[Solmyr]

Genoa has my ships protecting it from sieges, you know.

Genoa has my ships protecting it from sieges, you know.

I kept looking at Genoa and Gulf of Lyon wondering why the hell you didn't have a single ship there, but missed the Tyrrhenian.

Correction:

2-4/4: patronize Brahe.

Correction file sent; Max still up.  I'm passing out the turn, leaving Milan fully stacked, taking the remnants to Prague and taking the 2 mercs in winter.

[Solmyr]

Spanish winter will be Alva returning alone to Madrid, Don John+ships to Tunis, and the joint Spanish/papal fleet to Messina.

And Max should remove Santa Cruz in his file.

[Maximus]

Maurice joins the fray and the combined Dutch forces march on Antwerp.

Santa Cruz is finally interred.

47: 4 / Belgic Confession
Take 8 Protestant Conversion attempts that can affect spaces in the Netherlands. The first die is automatically a "6"; the rest are rolled randomly. Treat all rolls of "3" as if they were "4".

Message from Ottoman:
Nice work people.

I will sponsor my uber-scientist for 4CP.

If someone wants to take care of the file go for it, otherwise I will do it when I get home in a few hours.

#90: 1 / Priest Holes [RESPONSE]
Cancel the neutralization of 1 Jesuit. This Jesuit removal could be from a successful Gain Intelligence result or the Richard Topcliffe or Walsingham events. If more than 1 is being neutralized, you choose which one remains.

Message from Ottoman:
1 Cavalry in Istanbul.

I am passing out the turn.

Winter: Solluku to Istanbul. Can't remember the options for my fleet at the moment.
