Re: [eia] spanish land phase, Aug 06

[jjy@xxxxxxxxxxx]

The first part of your land phase is when you remove any depots you no longer 
want, and pay to place new depots for $1 each.

During this first part, you will build a depot to feed your corps landing at 
Alexandria.  Outside of your own territories, you can only build depots in 
places where you have a corps or fleet.  So you will have to spend $1 to build 
a depot with one or the other of your fleets.  A depot placed with a fleet is 
called an _invasion_supply_depot_, and will be removed if the fleet moves.

Then your corps will land at Alexandria.  They have to either forage (which it 
seems you don't want to do) or use paid supply from the invasion depot.  This 
costs $1 per corps.  So your orders cost Spain a total of $3.

I don't remember offhand if Alexandria has a garrison or not; I assume it 
does.  If I'm right, then your corps will have to lay siege to capture the 
city.  The besieger rolls one die, and if the result is high enough the 
defender must choose to either surrender or fight an assault battle.
