I don't see why???
If I were a smart Prussian player that just received 5 Austrian corps on loan then I would AT LEAST make sure that one of my little corps was available to participate in the battle to get the shared pp. After all, I am the Prussian player and I'm in this for Prussia! The amount of time that the Austrian loaned units were in combat alone would be minimal, no?

Sometimes one might want to be present at the battle, sometimes not (as when it's a battle that's likely to be lost); but I don't think what one would want is really the question. The question is, who is actually present at the battle? If it's only one nation, then that should be reflected in the PP change. Otherwise loaning becomes something quite different from the combined movement and allied supply it's meant to duplicate.

BUT if Prussia were simply sacrificing Austrian loaned units then that it never good, is it? I cannot imagine Austria being happy with that???

Marshall alot of things could be abused and lend units can be abused in other ways than just PP, same goes for forced-marched to kill factors...
(like moving them to non-agreed areas, forcemarches them when not agreed, takes casulties in a non-agreed method).

If such abuse happened it would depend on the gaming group, it could be redo turn or people drop out.
In my philosophy if an ally badly abuses my forces in ways that where not possible in combined movement in EIA I am playing with the wrong players.

Marshall its nothing about voting for what seems right.
If you want to adjust for non-exsisting EIA combined movement by using this lend units feature.
You need to fix this so only forces participating gain/loss pps !
