Fleets

[warspite1]

I see from the promo stuff that the land units are represented at a very small scale - Squad, Battalion and Regiment!

Two questions:

1. How are the land units represented? Are they named units or generic counters?
2. What about the naval vessels - how are fleets and ships represented?

A 'fleet' in this game is composed of 3 levels - and you have control over 2. The mid-point is the counter that you can see and build. Each counter has a number of individual ships - over time you may find you loose these (I do) so that is best regarded as a maximum number. Its usually 4-5. Finaly you can group your counters (perhaps best to think of these as squadrons) into a stack (ie a fleet), mixed as you wish. Best to ensure these have naval officers assigned as that will offset the problems of too large a force badly led (this is less a problem for individual squadrons where the malus is small)
