Well, Ships in Flames is always part of MWIF. I recently (within the past 2 months) made a change to the code to split convoys down to individual 1 point units for overrun die roll checks. I'm not so sure about the rule you are quoting.

I do recall there is something about captured convoys remaining on the map. Other captured naval units go into the Repair Pool.

RAW 11.11.6 lets you rebase naval units. Each face-down or surprised one becomes the check.
RAW 2.3.1 (under SiF Option 9) states every 2 CP (or any spare point) is a naval unit.
There is also a FAQ entry under Q11.11-4.


Just something to add to the end of the list.


p.s.: captured CP get a "CP Used" marker (so will be disorganised in MWiF). I think that is fine as is. Also in the FAQ Q11.11-3.

For Ships in Flames, you roll for every 2 CP's. In MWIF you roll for each one. That's a minor deviation IMHO. I wouldn't change that (I even think it is better this way, since a CP represents a number of merchant ships)...
