Positive in terms of territory gained/lost? Please explain how.
While it certainly cannot be argued that you did infact gain LV's three regions, the only thing that accomplished is pushing LV's most valued corps right into the hands of BoB and MC. So you have a couple regions... I'd say keeping LV intact would have been the better move. LV as an entity could have been bargained with and kept in control. LV as a part of BoB... not so much.
It's amazing how this whole thing started out as "The Coalition" and then turned into "The Northern Coalition and The Southern Coaliton" when the north started fucking up. You honestly think the total loss of the Northern front doesn't affect the Southern Coalition? You've lost the multi-front advantage, and now you've lost the numbers advantage... That's why people are saying you are losing.
