Additional balance note:
On TripleA I set all sides to the Fast AI to guarantee equal players. As you can see, the Allies clearly won:

In anniversary, Gibraltar is accessible from the Atlantic
It should not be so, because Gibraltar is not bordering the Atlantic in real world: it’s Tarifa, another Spanish city, the one bordering both Mediterranean and Atlantic. Gibraltar (and Hong Kong) has a gargantuesque size in AA50
So that stuff can fit there

Honk Kong could be justified given its economic importance in China. Gibraltar is strategically important. Both deserve to be recognized in AA.

I just had a great idea!!! Passing through straights should be like anti-aircraft guns are to planes. You should be able to pass through, but as long as an enemy has an opposing unit on the territory he should get to roll for a 1 and you take a hit for every 1 rolled!! This would be more militarily/historically accurate than simply closing a straight.
Except to subs I guess. But then again, why would the straights be closed to subs anyway if they can theoretically move under opponents without trigger combat anyway. Maybe they have to surface to get through a straight though, to be accurate, since straights aren’t that deep, I don’t think.

They must be included, that for sure, but they should not be so huge (specially Hong Kong). And say what you want, but crude facts show that Tarifa is nearer to Africa than any point of the (occupied) territory of Gibraltar

That’s an interesting idea for the usage of straits, especially considering that the guns at the Gibraltar base was the stated reason why it “closed” the straits. It would even work well with the new rules for capital ships not auto repairing, so it would still be a threat to battleships crossing through the straits as they would always survive, but might still take a hit and be weakened to any counter attacks.
And from what I understand, subs will be able to move through straits regardless of ownership, though of course the canals are still impassable if enemy controlled.

So, should Gibraltar be furnished with a Naval and Air base? I would assume so.

I don’t think so, Gibraltar is too small even for one of them, at least in setup. Malta as much could have a AB

Really? I mean, in terms of space, it will be small. But did not Gibraltar support both British ships and aircraft during the war?

FYI … I have started a new thread on this subject. (Air-Naval Bases)
