We have a few new players, and people who are still learning, so just a reminder after reviewing orders:
It is possible to have two or more units mutually Support each other (to hold), as long as they aren't moving. For example:
A Munich S A Tyrolia
A Tyrolia S A Munich
... is perfectly legal. Unless attacked from both directiosn by greater odds, an attack from either side would need at least 3:2 odds to take either Munich or Tyrolia. An attack on one side, however (even if unsuccesful), still cuts Support for the other side. Useful for units you don't want to move, but are still wary of an attack on from two or more opponents.
There aren't any glaring tactical errors that I can see yet where this would have saved the day, but it's good to know.
