Re: [eia] Battle of Leopoldstadt resolution


    As far as the rules are concerned, this exception (attacks against 
fleets carrying enemy corps) is the only exception in the rules that allows 
two nations to fight without a DoW.  It is a bizarre exception, and, 
frankly, I think the rules would be much more consistent without it.  In any 
case, though, I don't think we should be taking our cues from this singular 
exception, when the principle that two armies cannot fight without being at 
war is spelled out clearly in 7.3.8 (and then reiterated in the section on 
reinforcement).
    Ok, at this point, I've stated my view as clearly as it can be stated. 
I'll leave it to the rest of you to decide what we will be doing.
