Spain is very willing to accept Protestant rule of Amsterdam and points to the north of Antwerp, not to include Antwerp itself.

I think you should wait to surrender until you are actually threatened.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

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.

It costs 2 CPs to initiate piracy, Max.

"Initiate Piracy" is a 2 CP action for England (and everyone else), as shown on the power card.  I assume, since you rolled already, that you're skipping the following naval move?

Maximus

Well he sticks around in Guinea coast then

QuoteHoly Roman Empire: Play Card as Operations
#31: 5 / Treachery!
Play against any fortified space that is currently under siege, even a space where a besieging power does not meet the requirements for assault. Immediately initiate an assault by a besieging power on the units within the fortifications. If after the assault, the besieging units still outnumber the units within, apply these results: all defending units are eliminated; defending leaders are captured; space becomes controlled by besieging power.

[FAQ: "Where a besieging power does not meet the requirements for assault" refers to situations where normal assault is not possible because of a lack of a LOC or because of the presence of enemy naval units.]

Message from Holy Roman Empire:
4/5 Patronize Mercator
5/5 Recruit 1 merc in Pressburg

Science and the Arts are appreciated in the Empire.

Headed to bed.  Berkut knows my next play, so after Sol makes his play it's off to Spain to resolve my and his turns.
