Intriguing! Guess it's Prussia next?
I will do my turn when I get home, in about 7 hours.

grumbler, if you want to give me an idea of what you are planning, the Swedes might be willing to help out. They don't have much else to do these days...

And I know you said something about the Brits sending the fleet into the Baltic - that is likely problematic, since sailing passed Copenhagen means the fort guns get free shots at my squadrons.

I've been ready to send the russian fleet out to join the swedes against the danes... but I haven't had any prompting or encouragement...

Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

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.

I would encourage you to send the Russian fleet out against the Danes. Feel free to join up with the Swedes.

Prussia has formed a GA with Blucher, Bulow, and 10CU at Munster

The Turks are attacking Madrid and Habs needs to decide what he will do in the battle.

The Spanish stood their ground and predictably got their asses whipped with no losses to the Turks.  Flag overrun, per ACTS.

Madrid is flagged and the Turks have 4 CPs left.
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.

Moved Mustapha and 4CU to Naples.

Spain is up.

QuoteFrance: Spain: Play Strategy card as Operations

#75: 2 / Letters of Marque

Message from France:
This card is fairly worthless now, so...CPs :

1/2 - Castanos and 4 CUs attack Charles in Limoges.

Charlie may evade or stand and fight. Spaniards have no CCs.  Current battle is 5 vs. 7 dice, Austrian favor.

Charles, the hero of the West, will stand and fight!

Spain earns their 18 CPs with one outrageous upset victory over Charles.

Charles' forces are wiped out and the man is bagged (though he is prisoner-exchanged and available for rebuild, alas).  Spain spends its remaining CP to flag Orleans for their allies.

Sweden's up.

About time my dice turned around.  I think I'll call it a wash, now...

Sweden plays Emperor Commands to build a leader in Straslund and another CU in Kalmar.
