more naval problems

<t> Using latest version 3.0.2 I again encountered problems with naval battle resolution. Western Med USA/GB units against Italian resulted in Mad Except errors (which I sent via email) which stopped the game and an error in which naval anti-air factors from the Allied ships were counted against the ...

But when subsequent production phases come around Germany (the owner of these Build Points) cannot use them. They're not even listed in the Production ...

RE: Big error here in Naval Combat with version 3.0.1.0

Ok I thought I knew this game. Italy was at war only with Free France. So CW qualifies for surprise. I'll delete the post shortly. So no bug.

<r> Problem 2 - Hex control did not revert to German player as his unit passed thru. 2 hexes were still controlled by the Russian when they should have been German controlled. We did not notice this until the German player tried to rebase a fighter to one of the hexes.<br/>
