Now? I wonder if blue can win at all.

And I was wondering why are vehicles going slower on roads than off them! :)
Fixed.

I believe this map could fit any plot. There is this great peninsula on the
north, and ships have to go around it, which takes them a lot of time. There
are two large coastal towns off map, one on the south and one on the east. If
the channel is completed, and I now made it almost completed, fleet anchored
in one town could move fast to the other, so, even if an army approaching
from the southeast attacks the city without the fleet, the fleet could move
there during the attack, preventing the capture. However, if there is no
channel the fleet can't move fast enough and the city could be easily
captured (or the fleet would have to be split, reducing its effectivity).

Removed all air and related units. I'm still not sure what to do with
hovercrafts - perhaps creating a few helicopters ("reinforcement arrived")
when a hovercraft approaches the base.
