I an actual game, an specific situation made me wonder about the movement sequence. As far as I remeber, strategic movement (rail) is done last during a turn. In the case of combat in the strategic target hex, the units do not arrive at all (movement is cancelled)

In our case we had a battle for Saloniki. The germans (me) attacked in the first impulse of a new double month turn. But instead of arriving late (or not at all) English naval transport troops were already in the hex under attack. I don't know the specifics, but it might be that these we reinforcements arriving in England, which were instantly (teleported) into the hex even doing a journey by sea. If they had done a strategic movement by rail, they would have been disallowed to enter the hex.

Does this feels right? Shouldn't all strategic movement function under the same rules?

My recollection is different on this. Greece entered the war. and on the first move following, you moved a large stack of "Prussians" next to Salonika. while I moved three Brit corps by sea from Beirut to Salonika on the same turn. You attacked the next turn.
