English Invisable Navy in "Gold"? (not the VI part)

[LordK9]

I had a navy unit in the two sea zones adjacent to Flanders (as did the French) and three times, I was attacked from Wessex by the English with the survivors making it back. Later, I saw them attack the French cross channel without a single English fleet. Version 2.0. Is this a known bug?

And who are you, who takes such an interest in the affairs of foreign powers so far from your lands?

But seriously I'm confused which faction are you? Are you sure they didn't just attack across the landbridge to Flanders? Though I thought having the sea section blockaded by an enemy fleet prevented you using the land bridge. I might well be wrong.

Hi

Hmmm... I don't think having a fleet in a sea zone traversed by a landbridge interdicts enemy troop movements across the landbridge.

But I'm not 100% certain.

I am. Its like a land border, so nothing can prevent you (or your enemy) from crossing this land border.
But Dellathane is right, LordK9's message is very confusing. To get an answer the latter should specify the position.

Obviously just wishful thinking on my part. Though it is very strange to have such a link across the Channel, when it has such historical renown for disrupting invasion fleets in both directions. My invented solution seemed like a decent compromise. That's probably why I believed it in the first place.

Hi

Not so sure.

It didn't stop Russell "Robin" Crowe and Kate "Marion" Blanchett having to fight off the Frenchies on the beaches below the white cliffs of Dover!

I'd contend that that's more myth than fact. Between 1066 and 1588 no-one really attempted an invasion of a unified England - they'd land in one of the rebellious nations (Wales or Scotland) and attempt to rally an army there.

Though sometimes they'd catch sight of Welsh women and promptly surrender (Battle of Fishguard, Legacy section).

I actually didn't know there was a land bridge there - that was the first thing I thought and I looked for the marker but didn't see any. Probably was close to bed time or something.
