Notes
"rolling" units are all units in melee rolls but only units capable of fire for fire rolls
Gunboat units may not melee and are only affected by fire rolls; they never count as "rolling" units. The British Fleet may not melee but has 2 V class gun factors and does count as a '"rolling'" unit.
No combat is allowed across rivers.
