Sorry to rain on your parade, but "A Legal Entity is defined as having
sufficient mack to Usurp a Ministry if it holds at least half that
Ministry's (pre-Usurpation) Reward." It doesn't say anything about having
enough for ALL the Ministries being Usurped combined. Then three things
happen, first he loses mack, but he can't lose all he should, then he gets
your ministries. I don't see any way he could NOT get the three ministries
he is entitled to Usurp, except for Charles to lower his reward.

Yeah, something needs to change in the Usurpation rules.
