2 treasures/cards for all of them

That's a pretty aggressive ask for 4 CP.

I anticipating those cards treasures to average out at 2cp each. Or, in my case, 1cp each.

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.

Luckily I got to find out who my enemies are before I asked for mercs. :)

Passing out the turn unless the emperor tries to screw me again.

I'm pretty sure you already knew they were spain and france  :huh:

You don't have to pay the "regular game winner" premium when negotiating. In fact you get the "regular last place finisher" discount.

In which case I prefer two mercs i my capital.

Berwick isn't a fort or anything, so you can't winter there.

2 regulars to Buda, two to Belgrade.  Big fleet to Coron, pirates to Algiers.  Lone galley to nearest port.
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.

Cancel the progress of a scientist. Remove the scientist's marker from the "Patronized for X CP" box and place it on the Turn Track to serve as a reminder that this power may not sponsor another scientist until next turn. The scientist reenters play next turn.

Message from Holy Roman Empire:
Playing this to cancel Dee's patronage. The Observatory will be in the Empire.

I'm passing out the turn.

Winter - move leaders and all units in border forts to vienna. Diplomercs? - no, 2 mercs to capital.

Why no diplomercs? Nobody asked for them in time. I'm not going into a pathetic buyers market again. In the future, if you want them, tell me in advance of my winter.

Huh, can't say I've ever seen the "abandon the border forts to the Ottomans" strat before. Nice to see someone willing to try something new.

Send my cavalry in Scutari to Istanbul as well.
