Re: [eia] Assault at Zurich-French rolls


As the official history monkey, with the task of someday making a
comprehensive record of the game, I need the corps IDs involved in each
battle.  This info is part of the history blurb for that battle.

Here's one attempt at the challenge; certain peace conditions require that
the victor choose corps or fleets of the loser, for removal or to become a
"corps on loan".  Say a corps gets its ass kicked in a battle, losing most
of its factors, and then marches into a stack of other corps of its corps.
Then peace is made before the reinforcement phase allows the shifting of
factors between corps.  It would certainly be important to know which corps
is which if a choice is required as part of the peace.

But more importantly, since as you say it will rarely make a difference
which Austrian corps is which, what reason do you have _not_ to tell the
rest of us ?
