Milan

Created by John Norris

Variant Description:

1. The standard rules of regular diplomacy apply, except where modified
   below.

2. The map is altered as shown, creating the province of Milan between
   the former Piedmont and Venice provinces.  The latters supply centre
   is moved to Milan.

3. The former Piedmont, which losses its contact with Tyrolia to Milan,
   is now extended north-west to offer access to Burgundy as well as
   Marseilles.  To reflect these changes it is renamed Savoy.

4. Rome takes in all of the former Tuscany, so the combined province is thus
   adjacent to Savoy, Milan, Gulf Of Lyons as well as Rome's usual
   neighbours.

5. Venice is renamed Venetia following the convention that only home
   supply centres have city names.

6. This variant strngthens Italy, providing an attacking rather than
   defensive power.
