Detailed description
• Which part of the rules was not respected by the BGA adaptation
After a battle for Minisink, the retreating French light units should have been able to retreat into Oquaga (neutral indian space). Per the rules for "Adjacent Space Retreat" priorities, "The space may be a Village of a Neutral Indian Nation as a last resort (perform 8.1 Indian Nation control before Overwhelm)."
This battle took place in action round 3 of the game. British attacked from Kingston and a Colonial light unit was blocking Gnadengutten. The British won the battle 2 vs 1 so this was not even a Rout. So it seems like they should have been able to retreat to Oquaga and thus trigger the Iraquois trives to join the British side.• Is the rules violation visible on game replay? If yes, at which move number?
It is visible in the game log, but I cannot find the move number. The game is still in progress.

For a Neutral Indian Nation Village the unit that will added by the Indian Nation control procedure needs to be added for the calculation (this was clarified by the game developer), so you would need at least 4 units to be able to retreat to a Neutral Indian Nation village.
