Re: [eia] [escrow] July 1806 Political Orders

["J.J. Young" <jjy@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

There has to be some restriction on the movements of forces which no longer
have access to territory; romping around and being able to change direction
doesn't seem to make sense.  But using "east" or "north" as the criterion
seems very arbitrary.  Perhaps province boundaries are the way to measure it
?  Once a corps enters a province closer to the original entry point, it
cannot return into provinces further away ?
