Report for Philip:
Good session, if quiet. Vassalized and diploannexed Provence, vassalized Bavaria and Sicily. Got a -2 inflation event, so minted for a year to build three refineries in Italy, putting your inflation at a nice, even 2. Trade eff. is way up because of the refineries, a click towards Plutocracy on the DP slider, and Trade 3, and your trade income at this point is something like 20d. Overall income is 80~90. Expanded the navy in order to ferry a bigass army to invade and crush the Sicilians on Malta (thay had 34k on the island, I attacked with 47k, I beat them in one battle with only minor losses thanks to a 5 manuever general), and inherited a little bit of navy in the diploannexation of Provence (NOTE TO THE GM: Edit out the ghost army in Provence). Got 50 artillery in an event that might come in handy for fortress seiging. Got a 5/3/6/1 leader (or was it a 6/3/5/1? Meh...) near the end of the session. No explorers or conquistadors as of yet.
Aaaaaaaaand... that's about it.
