Built another galleon and pirated with less success this time. Off to Berkut.

If your last point was used to remove unrest in Calais, why did you move your marker up on the Papal influence track?
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.

I dropped it back down but Berk can move back up if that's what he actually wanted to spend point on.

Quote#47: 4 / Belgic Confession
Take 8 Protestant Conversion attempts that can affect spaces in the Netherlands. The first die is automatically a "6"; the rest are rolled randomly. Treat all rolls of "3" as if they were "4".

Message from Holy Roman Empire:
1-2/4 Influence on Papacy
3-4/4 Regular in Szigetvár

I don't know when it flipped, but I fixed that 4 unit chip in Szigetvár so that it properly shows that those are mercs not regulars.

Also shouldn't Berk roll for a treasure instead of just pick one?

I should roll, but otherwise yes, per 16.5.5.b.  I gave France a random treasure.

Rules say you should draw one at random. Since there is no way to know which ones are which, then simply choosing one is as random as any other method.

Thanks, I was going to use it for influence, and then remembered I had unrest and forgot to re-adjust.

Am I really doing so well that neither England nor the HRE even want to try to make a deal over those cards they just threw in the gutter?

Protestants do some more preaching in the Netherlands.  Max is up.

Too well, if you ask me.
