Dad's Army Coastal Defence
* Reference to a BBC comedy in 70's about the Bitish Home Gurad where citizens (local butcher, sheepfarmer, teacher, candlestick makers) equipped with surplus and outdated arms where going to make a last stand against German invasion during WWII.
I'm sure that I read somewhere that units without amphibious assault capability cannot 'land' on a tile that has a unit standing there.
My proposal is that once our main rail has been laid that we position surplus workers on coastal tiles, thus defusing any surprise sea based landing attempt.
They can be positioned to protect beach areas one or two tiles around cities which will give us added protection as it will force enemy units to move one or two turns before they are in range to commence attacking our cities ... also giving us time to rally our defences.
Question 1 ... does a worker block landings?
Question 2 ... is it allowed?
