((To Thomas Lloyd))Your Grace,
I propose that we diplomatically insult the French, reminding them that we are the greater power in western Europe.
((To STC members and stockholders))
Bishop Chaffinch,
Tell me, what does a bishop know about trade? No, wait. I tell you: Nothing. Why should we listen the advice you provide on this matter? The EBC is operating in a different theatre and the Crown urges you to reconsider. With a realm growing as fast as the one of Her Majesty, there is room for more than just one trading company. I have personally exchanged a letter with Ximeno Arantxez and the man does not seem to have any bad intentions.
I wonder what you are so afraid of.
~ Louis du Chastel, Royal Advisor to Elizabeth Talbot
((Indeed. If we take exploration ideas as our first idea group then we can only explore and not colonize until we reach dip tech 7.))((Just to make clear, we won't have enough colonial range until tech 7, even with exploration.))

((Good point.((Just want to add that if we take another diplo group first, we'll have to wait till group 3 cause you can not choose the same category if already at least 50% of your idea groups are of that category (diplomacy in this case). Just a reminder ))
((Good point.
I'd also like to say that, unlike Dreumel, I see no problem in taking exploration ideas as our first idea group. We could send an explorer to explore new land and a conquistador to hunt for the seven cities of gold.))
