Prussia cannot join our camp, they are Subject Neutral for a turn (the last turn, in fact).

Assuming there is a last turn.

Wellington did not suffer attrition in Picardy, and flags it.

Right now Britain and Russia are tied at +2 VPs, so Russia wins if the game ends now.

There is a +2 to the peace die roll, as well, IIRC.

Nassau suffers no attrition and is flagged by Russia.

Napoleon's army suffers 1 loss in Grodno.

Britain's up to declare whether they wish to ditch a card to appease the gods of war.
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.

OK, how many cards are going to have to be ditched here? And Prussia and Austria cannot ditch, right?

I will certainly ditch regardless - I don't think we can avoid a roll anyway.

I'm throwing a card to win; naturally.
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
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've got +3, 1 for a resource, Nassau and Zurich respectively.

And France will also ditch a card to attempt to prevent the Russian win.  That puts Russia up to a 5-6 win.  Someone feel free to do the honors...

OK, so if we all drop a card, that leave the game ending on a 5-6, with a Russian win.

Roll coming up.

Damn.

Well-played, Viking.  Good game.

Overall, I have to say I was very impressed by the play of the lot of you, considering most of you were somewhat new to the game. Very well done, and one of the better Nappy Wars games I have ever played in. Thanks.

It's over? Dang. Congratulations to Viking, playing wholeheartedly to defend Austria and the coalition and defeat France in the long term paid off, good to see. And no stabbing.

For some reason Nappy Wars doesn't quite do it for me. I'd like to wait a while before the next game, I have to plenty of other stuff I want to try.
