[eia] Nelson/Napoleon


    My belief is that only GB can gain or lose political points on account
of Nelson's presence at a battle.  Similarly, I think that only France can
gain or lose political points on account of Napoleon's presence at a battle.
While this is not stated clearly in the rules, I think it is the best way of
following the spirit of the rule change we adopted regarding how
multi-national forces are awarded political points after a battle.  Since we
have accepted the fundamental principle that different countries on the same
side of a battle can gain or lose differing amounts of political points, it
makes sense to me that we should differentiate who gets the benefit for
having Nelson/Napoleon.  (After all, why would the Turkish people be
encouraged because some foreign guy was in command when we won a battle?)
