I have had Austria surrender. Does control of the whole country go to a specific nation?

No, Austria is the one major power that when it surrenders its territory remains in play. However, I'm making a change to the Austrian surrender as it was the cause of the crash that was reported over on support. I'll update on any rule change I make.

In my game HA surrendered too, lost some land (borders moved) and now it looks, that TE forces can move inside the HA terriotory and German cannot ... is it correct ? And supply (some German units are "isolated" on the russian side of borders wihout connection to Germany ...

Oh, so you have a personal relationship to this game or rather to its background ? Well Austria-Hungary was composed of many nationalities with their "own" armies. In which did he participate ?

Perhaps you are too used to referring to it as DM = Doppel Monarchie [;)]
BTW, my paternal grandmother was from Bohemia, came to the US in 1913 (Ruzinka Svobodova)

Well i am from the southern part of Denmark which was annexed by Prussia in 1864 and given back to Denmark after WW1 so my grand grand father was drafted by Germany but put in the rear area around Lille doing kitchen service. They didn't trust minorities but amazingly enough he didn't object with that service being content fraternizing with young beautiful peasant wife, having plenty of food and getting a taste for Calvados instead of doing trench warfare.
Clever guy my grand grand father [:D]

My grandfather was a hospital corpsman for the "bloody bucket" division in WWI.
Bloody bucket was the 28th Pennsylvania National guard unit. He was harassed by us grandkids to tell war stories. We have a liberated German military rucksack in the family, and a helmet with a dent in it as well as the shrapnel piece that cause the dent. He was hiding in a garden during an artillery barrage. So guys, wear your helmets!
He was one of the folks who didn't get to return to the states until well into 1919; it had its compensations, namely bivouacking in a small French village; according to family legend my grandmother could've been from that village if her father hadn't disapproved of Yankees, so he ended up marrying the Czech woman mentioned above.
