I’m 90% sure I know, but need to clearify. When conducting bombardment for Battleships/Cruisers. Do I also count friendly Cruisers/Battleships?
Example, U.S. moves in a sea zone with 1 battleship, unloads 2 inf. on hostile island, this sea zone already has a U.K battleship present. So Instead of firing 1 bombardment, I’d fire 2.
As I said, 90% sure the answer is ‘No, only fire for the U.S. since it’s their turn’. Just wanted to make sure.
