No problem with making edits for mistakes.  This game takes so many hours that I don’t want the situation to be ruined by a “on no” moment.

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

The new troops that the Rohan purchased must be edited back to either Helms Deep or Eastfold.  Probably the former is far safer.

[Bismarch]

Your right, I had forgotten I placed them there.

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

No problem.  Rearrange your Rohan troops until you are satisfied with the new locations.  If they can be crushed by the combination of Saruman and Mordor (Nazgul), the game is essentially over.
