Fleets after Conquest

Post by agathop »

Just a quick question about fleets.

According to the game manual the fleet of a surrendered by conquest country falls in the hands of the conquering country. But that does not happen in the game; France surrendered by conquest to Germany but her surviving fleet was removed from the map. Am I right or the manual is correct and there is problem with the game?

Thanks in advance for your reply!

Dutch and Norwegian navies (such as they are) join UK. French fleet vanishes unless Germans go for full conquest in which case they join UK. Makes historical sense.

Does the Vichy fleet go to the UK if Germany invades Vichy France?

OK. Then the game manual has to be updated.
