lemme get this right.. Berkut, so far you have played

4/ Jean of Navarra
4/ Belgic Confessions
5/ Holy League

This hand seems to be as good as  Solmyr's seems to be poor.

This is fantastic, my luck has rubbed off on solmyr... I sort of regret playing the pro-protestant secret status now...

Well, you are very conveniently forgetting that I played a 2 CP card as well.

A 2 CP card that snatched one of the best 4 CP cards...
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

So, even the 2 cp card was a 4 cp card.

Played Government of France to add a bonus to Elizabeth de Valois' wedding to Philip; drew another card.

Haps is up to play or pass.

QuoteHoly Roman Empire: Play Card as Operations
#11: 2 / Dragut Falls [RESPONSE]
Play just after a stack containing Dragut has been involved in a combat or piracy attempt. After finishing the combat or piracy procedure, roll a die. On a roll of 4, 5, or 6, eliminate Dragut from the game (place Uluch Ali with the leaders entering next turn). On a 1, 2, or 3, place Dragut on the Turn Track; he reenters play next turn. OR Play if Spain controls the Djerba/Tripoli space. Eliminate Dragut from the game, place Uluch Ali with the leaders entering next turn, and award 1 War Winner VP to Spain. Remove card from play if Dragut is eliminated.

Message from Holy Roman Empire:
2/2 Regular to Pressburg

at least my hand is better than Solmyr's

Passing the rest of the turn.

Resulting naval battle leaves a dead Spanish galley and unscathed pirates.

Max, from a tactical standpoint, it makes no sense to build another galleon in Portsmouth if you're not expecting to be attacked any time soon.  Naval units count as Protestant/Catholic units and building them in separate ports will grant that specific port a strong defense against opposing religious conversions.
