Rolling for Catholic League formation.

No Catholic League!

The dice have really been screwing you the last turn.   :P
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.

Actually I don't think that's right:

Formation is automatic if the Protestant player controls 3 keys
in France

Bah, humbug.

We actually need input from Berkut, in that case.

Spain needs to pick 2 unfortified, French (not Huguenot) spaces to get political control of, in addition to automatic control of Reims.

I'm not sure I wanted Berkut in our party. :(

This sounds like it is going to be lots of fun.

We will take Dijon and Amiens.

And you need to count your Regs and your Mercs, separately, divide by 3, and remove that much of each. Spain must add this number of units in its spaces.  :licklips:

Also Habs, I have +2 on my Patronage rolls because Rudolf is Emperor and Prague is the Capital. Arcimboldo should be +5 then, isn't it?

Galileo is +7, so it seems it was applied on him.  :hmm:

10 French regulars, 5 mercenaries.

French lose 4 regulars, 2 mercenaries. 1 mercenary from Paris, 1 from Orleans. 1 regular from Bordeaux and Marseilles, 2 from Paris.

Duke of Guise and the above 6 traitors appear at Reims.

Ending the turn now.  Cards are on ACTS.

France gets a treasure from their colony, but I need to wait to draw it--both England and the Protestants have treasures that they need to discard in Cyberboard.

Off to diplomacy aside from that.
