The National Base concept -what it entails etc?

Post by Dili »

The reference by Alfred fb.asp?m=3820395
In AE, all nationalities have a National Base. It is the default location for many things, for example:

Where do you voluntarily disband LCUs? Answer, the National Base.
Where do resurrected dead units arrive? Answer, the National Base.
Can some dead units not be available for resurrection if the National Base is held by the enemy? Answer, correct they cannot be purchase if the National Base is held by the enemy.
What happens to a unit which is scheduled to arrive on map at a base which is held by the enemy? Answer, it arrives at the National Base if under friendly control.
Are there certain logistical benefits available to the National Base? Answer, yes.

Which i might add ship conversion to capital ship level which in game appears to be BB, CV, CVL maybe also BC.

Is there anything more to the National Base besides the above?

Is there anyway to edit the National Base to another location on the map? i suppose it is hex defined.
