How does flying combine with sailing?

Can they cross water then go inland? (Apparently carrying their boat with them?)

Poorly.
All kinds of retreating problems.

uneeded, there is a reason for no flying and that's balance, with water nations being slightly hard to hit in the early and even mid game there needs to be a balance, this balance is the lack of movement speed moving underwater.

The umbrella thing was supposed to be a mary poppins joke, I suppose a lot of people probably won't get it :)

Re: Flying?

Tests prove to me that flying and sailing net you no unique movement possibilities:

-Moving to a friendly coastal province does not allow you to sail unless you're sailing to a friendly province. You can only do this if you border the coastal province. Flying does not allow you to cross if you are more then one province away from the coast, spite the fact you have extra map movement.

-You can not cross the sea and move to the next province over, even if all provinces are friendly and/or you start from the coastal province. Sailing seems to stop all further movement.

It appears that you are either flying or walking and sailing. Never a combination of the two.
