Allies blockading the same port

[AdmNelson]

If allies are blocking the same port, does the enemy if trying to run the blockade, goes against one or both blockading fleets?

Last I checked (1.02, first beta), just one.

Yeah, kinda weird how it works.
 
I tested once, where I for testing, controlled GB/FR, so didnt have it hard to get Danish+Swedish fleet in FR control.
Then both minor's fleets blockaded same st. Petersburg.  While France took St. Petersburg.
 
But !!!  As a Surprise Russian fleet when having to evac the port, only fought the Swedish fleet I think (or might have been Danish). Which drasticly changed the evac-battles outcome. The Swedish fleet ran back to Stockholm (i think), The Danish stayed blockading St. Petersburg(no looses), And the Russian fleet evac-fleed to Riga.
 
I think I reported this bug in 1.01 and dont think i seen it fixed.

Wait...just so clear here how does this work. For example...

Fleet A is port with say 75 ships

Fleet B & C are allies blocking fleet A, B has 50 C has 25.

Fleet A tries to run the blockade.. who does he fight?...Is it..

75 vs 75
75 vs 50
75 vs 25

what is going to happen there?

In worst/best case (depending who you are ).
 
75 vs 25
or
75 vs 50.
 
I do not belive the blockading fleets would combine naval.
So what ever fleet is listed in some file as 1. that nation would fight alone.
 
As i mentioned in a test as a  MP i game couldnt even combine my 2 minor nations fleets.
And i do think same situation is likely to apply for 2 MP's naval fleets combined to.
