Roger that. It would be tough, like saying India is able to produce 1 extra infantry every other turn. it would make it a little more tedious to try to keep track of something extra like that.
I made the suggestion as it would show the logistical problem the U.K. had in trying to defend it's far flung empire with the troups it had available, i.e. soldiers needed in north africa, but they have to be moved from India, etc.
What you've done will probably get the idea accross just as well. I've not played the game for any amount of time, I hope to get 'er done 4 sure at Gen Con Indy.
