As the title says, if for any number of reasons, the French win at the Nile (along with Nelson dying during the battle, he got a head wound during it), how will this change the fate of the Egyptian Campaign. Will a better supplied Napoleon be able to set out on his conquest of the East or will good communications with France make him want to leave sooner and give up on the fanciful dream of marching on India (realizing sooner how badly the Directory are screwing up). Is conquering and pacifiying a large slice of the Medeast even possible for an early 19th century force to do?
