Notes
I have gotten a question regarding the victory conditions. Just to be clear, victory conditions are based on the number of players, not the number of countries being played. Therefore, a power attains victory when it controls 18 cities. Note that this is a single power, not the sum of the two powers that a player controls.
Summer 1459 Plague
Poor Year – Row Only: Turin, Siena (Florence A eliminated), Messina (Naples F and G eliminated), Padua (Austria A eliminated), Austria, Ferrara (Milan A eliminated).
