Gibraltar

[Pioniere]

In my game as Germany I conquered from UK but found out that it was only a level 1 land fort with a level 7 coastal fort and its not even have a cost!!:wacko:

What about to remove the 7 coastal-fort and make it a land-fort level 5 or 6.

Here you go IC-team maybe you can use this picture as a province picture for Gibraltar?

Yea the 7 shore defense is pretty useless. i agree it should be converted to a land fort

7 of land fortifications would not reflect the reality. Have you ever been in Gibraltar? taking the rock by land units would not take more than a week
The coastal fortifications are real. The Rock was armed to defend the strait and defend the Rock from naval bombardments

Except you cant really bombard gibraltar in the game (or any other province if that matters), the coastal battery IS useless even if historical.

The point is that it should have a coast in game terms for the naval fortification to have any meaning.

No I have never been that far south before in the Iberian peninsula but I have been in the world of hoi2 for many years and people have argued that this province should have shore.

Try to combine shore bombardment with and attack in Iron Cross

Most British players does not defend Gibralter from a land invasion because Spain didn't go Facist IRL. I bet if they did, the UK would have placed a larger garrison ther and fortified it better.
