CVs in base hexes...

Post by Mistmatz »

I remember strike craft sorites are limited when a CV is in a coastal hex. Is there a similar limitation when the CV is in a enemy held base hex which is ocean and not coastal?

If so what's the limitation for strike craft and is CAP also affected?
If you gained knowledge through the forum, why not putting it into the AE wiki?

Strikes and (I believe) CAP is halved.

There was a similar thread to this a while back and I believe the consensus was that the only time fleet carriers suffered limitations was when they were docked at a friendly base.  My experience tends to support this.  Is this not so??

Thanks for your answers guys.

The more important question was if an oceanic marked base would be treated as coastal or as oceanic.
In the meantime I found an answer in the manual saying all hexes with land and water are treated as coastal, which makes sense.
I found some oceanic hexes on the stock map which hold a base or beach, so I assume this is hardcoded somewhere and not depending on the map/pwhex file.
