I think I want to Take the Hungary Company Play the Hungary Company firing the peasant revolt one shot That should win Hungary and move it to my Tableau? Survivors are the Catholic knight and the Medici serf. Place my prize concession in the south of Hungary Liberate the Medici Concession and place it on West of Hungary One knight survives from the card and is placed in the city (let's say Budapest because whatever) Then I run ops: English Merchants don't do anything Hungary Company takes one cash off Vlad the Impaler Last Sigh Seiges the Catholic knight Khelpts - tax the eastern ottoman concession if they pay room to Modon Merchant Marine takes a coin off eastern trade Kingdom of Hungry does nothing Jewish pirates repress the western concession The Grimm moves the Islamic bishop off the Quiz onto the papal states.

Islam is the Supreme Religion Bishops: 2 Islamic > 1 Catholic + 0 Reformed. Theocratic Nobles: 5 Islamic > 4 Catholic + 0 Reformed Declaring an Imperial Victory takes 2 actions. Fugger Tableau Hand (3 Discovery. Imperial Torch) Medici Tableau Coeur Tableau Hand (2 Catholicism, 2 Islam, 1 Law, 2 Patronage, 5 Kingdoms. 1 Catholic Bishop, 1 Islamic Bishop) Marchionni Tableau   What a long tableau. In person, you'd be shuffling things around, moving your drink to a separate table. I also fear Islam was supreme last round - I hadn't thought about the Germans being slaughtered.  Marchionni gets some board presence. Not a very profitable part of the board, but they don't really need it to be.  Full size There's one! I was wrong last post, the odds of no comet cards in 7 cards isn't 50% but 20%, because there are of course 2 per deck.

Weird question: Let's say I have Aragon perform a strawman attack against my own Papal States. This both moves the Papals from an Ottoman vassal to an Aragonan vassal. Do I *also* get to place a new concession adjacent to the Papals?

Yes that counts as a regime change and thus triggers the placement of a pawn.

admanb posted:what the hell else am I gonna do? I have no money, no concessions, and no good ops. The Fuggers are currently threatening to vote away Aragon. And the Marchionni have been lining up an axe for the Ottoman neck for turns, just waiting for a Muslim Inquisitor to free up the Grim, and they just found their relief pitcher. Not their fault you chose to attack me the inefficient way.

Yep, in the Glossary for Abilities it makes clear that they're cumulative, so I say SN swipes four bucks from that trade-fair and GO (and France) gets nothing. It also specifies that Abilities can be Silenced by Bishops which I don't think I knew. It may not have come up.
