• Rodrigo Borgia : We cannot fight force with force, but we can with cunning. This begins by turning our enemy into an ally.

  Ascanio Sforza : Ludovico attempted such a gamble, and was betrayed by King Charles.

  Rodrigo Borgia : Cesare informs us that Louis possesses none of the Anjou pride. Still, should he invade Milan, we will impose an interdict upon France. Cutting them off from the Holy Sacraments - from salvation.

  Rodrigo Borgia : Good idea.
