A&E 090205 / DC240: The Winter 1769 season has been adjudicated. I never received an order from France, and so the default rules apply. I'm not sure if I'll spelled these out yet, so here are the units to keep from highest to lowest priority:
1) any unit in a home SC (if tied, skip to #4)
2) any unit in a neutral SC (if tied, skip to #5)
3) if no units in an SC, the unit that is minimum tempi from a home SC (or a neutral SC, if no home SCs, and skip to #5 if tied)
4) if tied from #3, unit that is minimum tempi from the next closest home SC (exhaust all home SCs)
5) if still tied from #4, unit that is minimum tempi from the next closest neutral SC (exhaust all neutral SCs)
6) if still tied from #5, alphabetical order (keep A, disband Z)
France has no home SCs. They keep A Barcelona (in a neutral SC). Then both A Gascony and A Languedoc are 1 tempi from a neutral SC, Barcelona. Looking at the next closest SC, the only other one is Madrid, which is 2 tempi from both units. This leaves us with #6, which is alphabetical order, so Mike keeps A Gascony and disbands A Languedoc.
Did I mention that I'm an actuary? (that explains my need to create an elaborate logical system, rather than just flip a coin or arbitarily decide, Wizard of Oz style)
Anyway, our next deadline for Spring 1770 is Thu May 28th.
