RE: [eia] Algiers siege

[Danny Mount <mount.23@xxxxxxx>]

Mike,
You are right.  But I thought Spain rolled on the 5-2 table.  Since I rolled
a six in the second round wouldn't the results be 7 x 20% = 1.4  (I thought
we rounded up in this case).

Sieges don't work quite the same way.

First off, it should be two factors a piece as the Spanish army would only
have 7 factors after the first round and thus cause only 1 casualty on the
6 for the second round.

Victory in a siege gains Spain a point, but defeat in a siege doesn't cost
any points and there is no retreat after a siege.  The siege is simply
resumed as the Algerians failed to take the city.
