We always use intelligence rather than emotions when analysing these things.
We would prefer a peace all around FRA-OE-AUS-SPA, if however FRA prefers a separate peace with us (we not knowing how intimate the Sultan and the king od FRA is) we would not be entirely unhappy with letting Senor Cortez and Senor Pizarro eventually (a year or two from now) start stabhitting for Alexandria which would be a nice jewel in the Spanish Crown.
Meanwhile in the Pyrenee´s there seem to be a stand-still. The 38k SPA infantry army under Alba, presently in Gerona, cannot descend on to the plains of Rousillon in fear of the mostly 50k cavalry army under de Guise who in turn cannot attack into the mountains in fear of the superior Alba and the defender/mountain bonus actually making Alba into Napoleon in this position.

Will do.
About hosting: since Daniel A is playing I think we'll go with him, since he's been proved stable in the past. However, if problems arrise we can always switch.
Ok leaders are generated. First I forgot to re-upload the save, so no leaders were generated with my first 2 tries 
Anyway, Daniel A and Lurken, plz download the save from the stats. So I don't have to transfer it to you later.

Small report:
England owes 500 to Spain.
Had to mint a lot during the war so I got inflation a little bit high.
Good luck with conversion and inflation to the next england´s player because you wont need it with merchants (TE: 72, the highest)
It was fun, call me if you need a sub next sunday, I´ll be on icq ( 245-848-369)
See ya around

Ok general report for FAL (mostly):
Delosandees subbed England the entire session. I ICQed Fredrik that he could ICQ me if he wanted to play, but I got no such message. Thanks for subbing delo!
I declared Persia OFF-limits for the session, since I didn't know what your intentions for her were. Perhaps still suitable as a player nation?
Denmark lost Bremen to BB and in war with Sweden had a government fall, losing jutland and norway. Raspoutine thought it was no use to continue, and I agreed Denmark was practically dead. He asked permission to leave the game to do something else, which I gave to him.
Rest of the session was without incidents/notable news.

Quick Portuguese summary:
- Minted about 5%
- Gave Tangiers to Spain, got 3 gold mines, Baleares, Galicia and Sardinia from Spain (+3 euro ports)
- Colonized a bit, notably Table because there was no good resupply stop in Africa
- Snatched Ganges from Bengal
- Spent a lot of time at low stab becuase of province transfers and a few political crisises, thus trading didn't go too well, but trade income is still decent.
- Teched trade 5 and now approaching LT13
- Built two refineries in Brazil
- Made a huge diplomatic effort to get Spain and Austria to attack France, since France was obviously doing too much what they wanted.
On the other hand saving England is not a good long-term strategy for Portugal, but that England would have been completely wasted had France won against it.

Thanks again for subbing, I'll be sure to add you. Perhaps FAL can add you to the list of subs/people interested.
Apart from the insane levels of Badboy, and the fact that Inflation is 4% higher then I hoped it would be, all in all Russia is doing very well.
Interesting session.
Summary of the OE 1538-1565
Summary of the OE 1538-1565
- WP with Austria and Spain in the first war due to France peacing out with them.
- Got a NAP with Poland, became more freindly with Venice.
- Converted all but 3 provinces (at least 9-10 sucessful conversions)
- Inflation up a bit, although an exceptional year helped
- Went more centralisation and more serfdom to reduce stab costs (slightly less inno as well)
- Got to infra 4, land 16, and heading for trade 4
- DOWed Austria again due to them DOWing France, but lost badly, ceding Maros and Croatia to Austria (lost Suleyman too) It probably helped France to a leinient peace with Spain.
- Annexed Ragusa, Moldavia and Transylvania. BB still reasonably low though (10bb). This was done to make the rest of Hungary more defensible
- Started converting those provnices as well, plus the others that had failed to convert.
