Map features
Coasts:
There are 3 provinces with multiple coasts:
Asiana (north and west) (in Anatolia)
Caledonia (east and west) (in Scotland)
Haervej (east and west) (in Denmark)
River
There is a canal linking PON (Pontus Euxinus – the Black Sea) to BAL (Baltic) through: Pliska-Dniestr-Kyyiv-Dniepr-Livonia. Thus a Fleet can be built in Kyyiv, but it can only move (and support) to Dpr and Dtr.
Bridges:
There are 5 land bridges that connect one land province directly to another.
Dalriada-Dunadd (Scottish Channel)
Dalriada-Alclud (Scottish Channel)
Gades-Tingis (Gibraltar Straight)
Calabria-Catana (Sicily Straight)
Viborg-Skandia (Danish Islands)
Thus any unit in Dal can move to Dun and Alc without convoy.
Of course this creates some “X” boundaries, as a unit can move Dal-Dun while another one moves SCO-SOM. These crossed moves doesn’t affect each other.
