Can't really do much about alpha screenshots. The recent screenshots show 5 map mode icons, not only 3.

Though I can see why they made it that way. AI England gets its ass kicked quick in HYW because it doesn't transport troops from Old Blighty to France.

Ok, they (England) didnt in 1.09, just thought maybe they just removed the ability to walk on water in FTG, but left the goodies in.

Really? In all my playthroughs so far they're getting kicked out of France in 1424-1428ish with no troops in France to continue the war while they have maybe 40,000 or so sitting around in England.

Yup (tongue in cheek). During the Reign of Terror the Channel was denounced as being deterministic preventing million man cavalry armies invading England during multi player games.
