Re: [eia] Round 3, Mantua retreat question...


Interesting question about the retreat, I certainly don't know the answer.
How about this, the mountain hex north of Mantua (and sw of Salzburg), also
is 1 hex away from a depot, retreat the army there, and the issue of unused
movement doesn't occur.

While I still wait for Austria to get a bad roll, I'm sure it will happen 
someday, this retreat does raise an issue.  The forces now at Venice used 
movement as part of forage.  Is it therefore possible for them to besiege 
the city?
