First, this should be put in the perspective, this is a beta-test PBEM game with 2 players controling 3 nations with 4 inactive nations. We didn't put AI in charge of them since we wanted a quick slugfest between France and Austro-Prussian alliance. This was never ment to go the distance and/or played to win. The most important thing was to see how PBEM procedure works in the latest build.
Lausitz has Prussian territory to the west, north and east and Austria is to the south so it's 2$ and 1MP will probably be well protected once the war starts, and they will be put to good use in the Economic phase.
In general having minors under your control can work in two ways, if the war is long then they are in danger of being lost to the enemy, if the war is quickly decided then they prove valuable in case you loose the big battle and have to surrender. France is usually impossible to be beaten in battle under Napoleon by the combined Austro-Prussian army of the first war. So why don't take as much minors as you can so France needs to disperse it's corps to try and take them away from you. If both Prussia and Austria do just that France will disperse too much or you will get to keep some of them after surrender.
Now I just hope rhodopsine will have enough free time so we can continue this test game. [:)]
