That is a rather haughty thing to say from somebody who picked the wrong season to stab me.

There is incompetency in choosing allies, enemies. One can lack kairos. I do not blame a man for misjudging.
And then there is just being an idiot.
I don't see why not. Also, yes, those orders do work, but I would like to point out that you might want to note the legality of the move from Petersburg, or lack thereof.

Supermath, if you want someone who can actually play the game to be Russia instead, I could help you out.
sp, that's an offer for you too, since I think it unlikely you will enjoy this game if you don't know the rules and strategy involved. Whatever you might think, this isn't truly a NES, so don't expect to play it as such.

I'm sure you are now, but will you after this turn when it becomes apparent to you that your neighbors will take advantage of your inexperience? That second sentence of yours shows this very clearly.
If you truly want to play on - a word of advice. You are not allied with anyone, unless you choose to be, and they want to be. You may think you are allied to people, and they may claim to be your allies, but words mean nothing in this game and they won't hesitate to roll over you at the least sign of weakness (which you have already shown a very large amount of due to not knowing the game). Ask yourself, why would Germany or Britain or Austria or Turkey want to be allied with you? If you can't give a satisfactory strategic answer to that, then you can be sure they won't be bothered to try to find one either, and no matter what they say about it they will be after your throat. That's a very core concept in Diplomacy (as opposed to a NES) - keeping allies while they are useful to you, but not hanging on to dead meat.

That's ok, I already explained why we should be allied to each other in the PM. Now go away, Wormtongue, you slithering snake.

I should put out that my orders in their final version were:
I don't want to annoy the mod, but was there an implementation problem?

Oops- that should have been A Prussia-Warsaw.
... in which case it would simply have bounced.

It would of course simplify things if you could list the necessary retreats, since the map doesn't really show them well. In particular A spa must retreat, which is hard to see.
