[eia] Combat summary errata


    Below I made two arithmetic errors in the description of the combat.  I
said that there were only 80 Austro-Turkish factors left at the end of round
1.  That was a mistake.  There were 81 factors remaining.  Then I said that
there were 78 Austro-Turkish factors remaining after the 2nd round artillery
bombardment.  That was also a mistake.  There were 79.  However, neither of
these mistakes affected the final tallies printed at the bottom.  Those are
correct.
    For the record, France burns the Austrian depot after it takes control
of the field of battle East of Milan.

>     The French side loses 1 guard and 17 French inf.  (The Piedmont corps

>     The Austro-Turkish side loses 1 guard, 16 factors, 1 cavalry (due to

both

phase.
