Spanish only lose 1 galley in that battle--the Ottomans lost the battle, so odd hits on the winner are ignored (unless it's the Ottomans with a corsair).
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.

Yeah, I meant to only remove 1 galley, but clearly brain froze.

EDIT: looking at the file, it looks like I removed 1 Spanish galley (correct), 1 Ottoman galley (correct), 1 Ottoman corsair (correct), and then 1 additional Ottoman corsair (incorrect).

Oh I didn't realize I needed to check my ACTS email. :blush:

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Berkut, for whatever reason, is pulling a Max and not posting in the thread, either.

Played my home card to patronize Palladio. File sent.

Converted several spaces with my home card.  Calais and Antwerp go into unrest.

Max is up.

Piracy in Tyrrhenian Sea scores a hit at the cost of both remaining corsairs. Ulmont to assign reward and play

Give a card in your hand (other than your Home card or a Mandatory Event) to another power. Then draw 1 new card from the deck; it must be held until a later impulse.

Message from England:
Giving a non-existent card to Protestants and drawing a new one.

No file, Berkut up.

Played HC for +2 wedding, drew a new card. Done, not file till later.
