    Ref : Geographic errors & mis-read orders

    1) Firstly one of mine - Spain in G7 has now got a "St James of the Andes rock Cathedral" hollowed out of the hill in Burgos in Spain. Which is a long, ong way from the Andes (& Bogota!) & locals left wondering why no restoration work on their historic city Cathedral instead?

    2) Assume this was a error but in G2 marching to help its allies on the Rhine a 45,000 strong Russian Army got as far as central Europe when the war ended and it no doubt got orders to go else where. Not sure were it was trying to go or what route the player intended but I doubt if intention was to hire merchant ships and sail down the Danube and out into the Black Sea - then turn south rather than North and dis-embark in the Ottoman Port of Sinope prior to marching off into Anatolia without supplies! All to the total shock of the Ottoman Grand Vizier and the Ottoman Sultan!!
