Re: [eia] a question about trade

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

Occupying Madrid creates a different situation than Britain choosing to deny
Spain its American trade.  This is because if Britain chooses to deny the
trade, Britain captures the trade money it denied to Spain.

If rule 12.9 is activated if either a) Britain chooses to capture Spain's
American trade, or b) Spain is kept from carrying out American trade by
peace condition B.6., then I would still argue that neither condition
applies.  Britain did not choose to capture Spain's American trade, and
Spain was prevented from carrying out American trade not by condition B.6.,
but by Madrid being occupied by an enemy.

> I think that G.B. is still "denying" Spain its American Trade because G.B.
is the one occupying Spain's capital city.  If it were any other nation that
was occupying Spain's capital then I would say you have a point but since it
is still Great Britain that is "denying" Spain it's American Trade you
should have to roll.

Britain need not make a "War of 1812" roll for denying American trade to
Spain, since no trade can be attempted for me to deny in the first place.

Britain need not make the roll.
