Protestant plays Huguenot Lent as an event.
<Chip (Protestant)> - Huguenot Lent for 8 conversion attempts in France. I get one automatic 6.
** Protestant rolls 7 d6: 1,3,2,4,5,4,6
<Chip (Protestant)> - Two major (counting the bonus 6), four minor, and one unrest.
<Chip (Protestant)> - I will use the two majors on Paris and Lyon.
<Chip (Protestant)> - Minors on Boulogne, Caen, and Grenoble.
<Chip (Protestant)> - One is wasted, since there are no other legal targets.
Unrest in Grenoble.
Protestant Spaces: 26
<Chip (Protestant)> - I’ll put the unrest in Grenoble.
Over to @CraigM for the Ottoman turn.
It 2 majors and 3 minors. Same practical result, though.
Indeed, I don’t know how I misread that. It means I didn’t waste a flip after all.
Craig texted me from Yosemite to say that he’s passing and certainly not pirating anyone and that I should just go ahead and take my turn.
I don’t think he can pass so early :P
Good try though

I do not believe Spain is allowed to build the second new world fortress without the requisite tech advancement.
Spain can build one per turn until they get the Coastal Fortification technology. See 8.2.

Playing Ottoman Tribute for CP.
First CP to assault Tunis.
4 dice (5 units/ 2 + commander) vs 2 (fortified space + 1 unit)
Rolls ** Ottoman rolls 4 d6: 2,5,3,2
** Ottoman rolls 2 d6: 3,3
1 hit is enough, the assault goes through
Will spend 1 CP to move fleets. Ionian and Barbary to Tyhrennain sea
Will spend 2CP to pirate Spain.
Would have 3 defender dice for the 3 galleys in Calligiari I believe @Cuthbert confirm?
Yes I believe that’s correct

Ok, rolling defense
** Ottoman rolls 3 d6: 5,2,1
So that eliminates one corsair
On to the piracy dice
more than one ship, and more than one port = 2 dice
Dragut adds 2 dice
4 dice total
** Ottoman rolls 4 d6: 5,2,5,1
@Cuthbert your choices for the 2 hits. VP, cards, or eliminate units.
