Re: [eia] [escrow] July 1806 Political Orders


So the French army can leave Prussia to invade Austria, march to Linz, say,
seven spaces from Paris, then march back through Prussia to attack Russia a
year later.  And then return through Prussian territory a year after that to
attack Austria again.  As long as they never return to French territory, the
four French corps that entered Prussia have access through Prussia forever
and ever, amen.

This is a broken rule.

I'll play the game that way, but this is a broken rule.
