C.2 Each Portuguese (+) trading post and (-)or (+) colony captured by the Dutch remainsPortuguese but brings 50% of its normalincome to Holland, plus all exploitedresources incomeNB: for the other major countries at war withSpain / Portugal, normal rules apply

Ownership transfer of such counters (replacedby an equivalent Dutch counter) takes placeunder the following conditions :

1 / When Spain recognizes Holland, amaximum of 2 trading-posts (+) and 1 colony(+) or (-) become Dutch. The others areevacuated and become Portuguese again;and

2 / counters occupied continuously by Dutchfor 5 consecutive turns and not recaptured bySpanish / Portuguese units during that timebecome Dutch during the Peace phase of the5th turn of occupation. Does not apply toPortuguese counters in America and those

E. PenaltyIf this objective is chosen, and Venise controlsless than 2 Italian minors diplomatically andless than 10 provinces in Italy at the end ofthe 1520-1559 period, she loses 150 VP (noVP loss in 1519 - check only in 1559).
