Posted in Naval Combat:

Maybe Ports should be built then? And now their importance is that they are necessary when preforming an Amphibious Assault (making it necessary to take this Island to go to this one and so on...)

Ports have been around for many years prior to the war. You cant just make a port and start building ships and have the ships all ready to fight in 2 turns. An established port is created over a very long time. Id advise just have historical naval ports printed on map like a/a pacific.easy
We really need an Axis and Allies World War one game so i can play that on August 1st, 2014.

places like calcutta,sidney,san diego, Hawaii, probably Tokyo which was not a naval harbor, portsmouth, antwerp, plus say alexandra, tobruk, plus many others are victory cities as well as ports. Each could have a seperate value, but i like what they did in avalon hills Third Reich. One of the bast games ever made. The victory cities and ports in that game are what id like to see here.Flawless.

Could you explain how they worked for those of us who don't own this game? Then we can actually expand on it's system...

I don't think ports should have anything to do with victory criteria
