How did the armies in IL and KY get where they are? The rules of Diplomacy (4th edition 2000) state that "units cannot trade places without the use of a convoy. If units are ordered to the province the other occupies, neither can move." PiT had A KY-IL. LLR had A IL-KY, and its support from MO was cut. That leaves neither PiT's A KY nor LLR's A IL able to move and both must remain in place. That in turn means that LLR has control of the IL supply center for fall 2004, and has only one loss while PiT gains no units.

Ok, thanks. Didn't know.
