Yes, that's correct, but you also want to be careful with public
announcements on places like r.g.d, it is highly likely that

GM is away, but you would have done better to "anonymize"
your question as well as you could and CERTAINLY not have
sent us your whole set of orders!
I hope this doesn't hurt you too badly.

PS Tim is precisely correct, since you are changing the order,
it thinks that h is trying to be a "province", better to just
leave it out.
