Sea Zones and hexes

Post by Hairog »

How do you find out what sea zone your aircraft can attack before you move them? Is there a map somewhere of the sea zones and corresponding map hexes?

It would be nice to have.  I guess right often, but I certainly don't know.

I may be of some assistance here, even if I often have top guess also. The following screens are from the basic map editor, where you can change where the coastal hexes of every sea area should be located. The purple hexes are the corresponding ones in each case. Since I take your question refers to ETO, Hairog, I have taken the screenies from ETO, which is different from the vanilla. ETO have "North Sea Coastal Waters", which was made as a request from players thinking that it was impossible for Germany to reach so far out in the North Sea as in the original.

As I understand it, the concerned air unit counts a certain number of hexes, from it's location to a coastal hex. If this is within some pre-set limit, the unit is supposed to reach the sea area and can act freely within it.
