I remember the level 1 order limit being 4. Was it reduced?
I was thinking of introducing some friends to the game by inviting them to a private match. But if they get only one future order and I don't, I'd kind of feel like the kid who gives you the slightly broken controller when you go to his house.
When the security level idea was introduced to the beta a few months ago the L1 clearance only gave you 1 future order which might be why you see that mentioned around. It got increased to 4 for launch though.
There's a known bug on iOS that could limit it to 1 instead of 4. The Apple approval process delays when bug fixes come out. There's also a report about this possibly involving hiring a specialist, written about url=http://forums.subterfuge-game.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=646&p=2942#p2942]*here*[/url].
