Colonial Rules Update

[The Adjudicator]

I have amended the Colonial rules over which there may be contention in the near future. Add the following movement rule for Fleets in the Red Sea or Mediterranean.

4) The Suez Canal in Egypt opened in 1869. Therefore, Fleets may move from the Mediterranean to Egypt to the Red Sea or vice versa, but cannot move to or from either Sea without first travelling through Egypt. This follows the same rules as moving through Kiel to get to either the Helgoland Bight or the Barrents Sea in regular Diplomacy.

In addition, the italicized text in rule #5 is added for clarification.

5) ... Powers can only build new Units from yellow stars that they begin the game with. The coloured concentric circle around the yellow Home Production Centers indicates the Power to which they belong; that is:

Britain: Aden, Bombay, Delhi, Madras, Hong Kong, Singapore
China: Canton, Peking, Manchuria, Sinkiang, Shanghai
France: Annam, Conchin, Tongking
Holland: Borneo, Java, Sumatra
Japan: Kyoto, Kyushu, Otaru, Tokyo
Russia: Moscow, Odessa, Omsk, Port Arthur, Vladivostok
Turkey: Angora, Baghdad, Constantinople
