Re: [eia] France's land phase orders

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

I have one question about Mike's interpretation of the depot garrison rules.
If the depot garrison and the city garrison are in different locations zero
movement apart, then why does the depot garrison have to be a part of the
city's capacity ?  Using the example of Constantinople, why couldn't you
have a city garrison of 25, with up to 10 additional factors garrisoning the
depot in the area outside the city ?  Of course, if the city is already
full, this takes away the option of switching factors from the depot
garrison into the city garrison, but why should the depot garrison, which is
outside the city, have to make up part of the city's maximum capacity ?
