Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

The next question is, what is considered a blockade? Would you have to have a solid line of ships or would there be some kind of interception range/ZOC? And would you have to blockade a specific city or could you just set up a chokepoint somewhere (like blockading Gibraltar to cut off all Mediterranean cities)?

Sounds neat, anyway.

Edit: I see my second question was answered in another thread--the blockade has to be on the city itself.

my guess;

1. in order to blockade an harbor, you need to move a ship to an adjecent tile; i donot think it will be necessary to occupy all coast tiles of an harbor; that would be too difficult
2. i believe it will be required to blockade the harbor, blocking the path would be too fuzzy

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

I'm sure naval blockades will be well documented in the manual.

This is a really incredible feature, because it suddenly makes having a navy very important in fighting a war. I know it was important before, but I usually slacked off building a powerful navy because I always concentrated on building a good air canopy to protect myself from enemies. Now... I'll have to build a navy just to be able to blockade! Wow! What a game!

Only 6 days!!!!!

Put an end to popups!

I am happy to know how naval blockade is working. I can't wait playing ... but I still have to wait 23 days
