Newbie experience

<t> I've played a little bit of the board game. Bought this version 18 months ago. Just found some time to try it out. Solo seems OK.<br/>
<br/>
Upgraded to version 2 for multiplayer. Here are the issues I had. I suspect most are user error, so advice would be welcome on those points.<br/>

RE: IMPORTANT: State of the Game and Future Plans as of March, 2014

<t> Finally 18 months after buying this game I find some time to sit down and play. Solo seems to run fine. So I tried a netplay game with a friend (although we were sitting side by side).<br/>
<br/>
Forget it.<br/>

But then I notice people talking about version 2 on some of the forums.<br ...

RE: Some Newbie questions

I have a depot on mountains that I can't remove as it has troops in it.&nbsp; I have moved a corps there, but I can't seem to transfer the forces out.&nbsp; What am I missing?

RE: Some Newbie questions

During the reinforcement phase, is there a quick way to jump to all the places you have reinforcements arriving, or do you have to go looking for them?

<t> Overall I didn't have a lot of difficulty learning the game mechanics, and I haven't even worked through the online tutorial yet. However what I am struggling to understand is some of the whys?<br/>
