Loaning Corps still not quite there.

France loaned Russia all the Corps with Napoleon in Leipzig and the Corps in Kustrin and Prague. Massena was placed in the reinforcement phase in Kustrin and then loaned to Russia. The idea was to move Napoleon and all the corps with him through Dresden, then Theresinstadt and into Glogau. Massena with the corps from Kustrin would move to attack Mack with the corps from Prague. The Corps in Prague would have picked up the Factor in Prague and Bunn.
Russia would have built a depot and fed everyone. However once the troops were loanded Russia could not move the Corps in Prague at all, and the corps with Napoleon could not move through Austrian territory. These were still French corps at war with Austria, Russia is not at war with Austria, but should have been able to attack Austria using only French Corps.
