>The "Train Soldier Skill" order...

I believe you're correct:  You have to have the PC you'd have needed
to train them from scratch, but their training level is unchanged,
and you only pay for the skill.

A related factor is that reserve slots don't get the fortification
bonuses until they move up.  But yes, there are minuses for being
moutned.

Poison is irrelevant for soldiers.  I don't know whether it automatically
affects characters who've taken damage, but I've never seen it to fail.
And you can only fix it with an antidote or a commune spell.  (Or by
activating one of the many items that has a pct chance of curing poison.)
Note, in particular, that a resurrected character that died of poison is
still poisoned.

Very well.  I will email you the 3200 crowns next turn. :-)
