Before you get all heated up on the gave-Spain-a-VP talk, I havent given him nothing. Took a VP, gave a VP. I left it exactly where your sorry asses left it

Took a VP that he can easily get back, gave a free VP that doesn't help you much...

unrest to Amiens

Can't unrest Amiens, it wasn't converted in this action.

[Solmyr]

Anyhow I'll do eot, I'll start with marriage and patronage since it determines whether anything else matters.

Isabella dies in childbirth. HRE and France gain 1 VP each (and France 1 VP more for Marguerite).

People age, only William and Rudolf still left.

[Solmyr]

Titian runs away with the cash.

Taqi al-Din gains 1 VP or a bonus, I assume sbr takes the VP.
Brahe gains 2 VP and a bonus.

And game continues, at least until the Ottomans pirate me one more time.

[sbr]

Yep, I take the VP please.

[Solmyr]

Ulmont should say which science bonus he wants.

[ulmont]

I'll take Cryptography.

[ulmont]

Why'd you calculate +3 VP for France (marriage, Marguerite, Paris) and then give them +4?

[Solmyr]

Because Paris gives 2 VP from now on.

At least while Henry III rules. Also for Protestants, if they have Navarre in there, and for Spain if they have Guise in there. 1 VP only if those conditions are not true.

[Solmyr]

VP
Ottoman    24
Spain    23
England    11
France    23
Holy Roman Empire    21
Protestants    12

France is suddenly in the running, although Ottomans still have the easiest path to victory.

Hand sizes
Ottomans 7 (4 base, +1 marker, +1 Suez, +1 saved)
Spain 6 (5 base, +1 ruler)
England 3 (2 base, +1 ruler)
France 5 (4 base, +1 ruler)
HRE 7 (5 base, +1 ruler, +1 saved)
