YES!!!!!!!
Admittedly I'm about a year into Game 1. But I've already made a couple of big mistakes. I marched the Italian Corps into 150,000 Russians and Austrians defending the mountains this way. Ouch!
Especially since the game system is one where you give orders, then they get executed, it seems that I should be able to edit those orders anyway I want right up until I hit "End Turn". This could be a "go back" or "undo", or maybe just a "clear all orders" for a unit/city/region etc.

Completely agree, until you hit end you should always be able to go back. Otherwise the game will take forever if you have to think out all your moves in order in advance. I guess that is one of the reasons I don't TCP/IP play.

Yes I would like a "go back" and I would like it to apply to builds and development too.
At the moment I am saving over and over because I find I accidentally hit "build bank" or because I am building an Army Container in a different province from the one I thought.
I know, I am clumsy but I have not yet gotten the hang of when I have cliked on a province and when I have released it. I find I have scrolled the map but am still active in some province just off the field of view.

I am confident; oh please let it be so; that an undo button or hotkey will be in the patch.

Nobody, I believe, is gonna hesitate to give you a sure answer - aye. Saving a game at the beginning of each turn is a makeshift.

Hi, I don't understand. Since nothing actually moves in the orders phase. I move fleets from one zone to another (merchants looking for best paying region) Fleets and Ships almost never go where I tell them unless I've only ordered them to move a single region.
If you change your mind can't you just reissue orders?

I've done the re-issue and the unit will still go to your first destination before it tries to carry out your second order. It always seems to run out of moves, of course, before it can make it to where you wanted it to go in the first place.[:(]

An "undo" is one of our planned additional features for an update.
