Orders for fleets and armies are secretly sent to the Judge +(a computer), which then calculates the results and forwards what has +happened to the players. Then the players go back to organising things +for the next turn. Simple, right? The system is, but the game is not. +Will the Austrian help my French army to conquer Munich? Will the +German army in Kiel assist the Munich army? Can I get Russia to +attack Berlin from the east? Can I convince the German that I am +planning peaceful moves (preparing to attack Italy) and thus have the +element of surprise? + +Mapit takes the results of a Judge adjudicated move and outputs a +color or monochrome postscript map of the status of the board.
