You don’t beat your kids? :P
Question about Gameboard
-
I have 2 questions about the map of the gameboard. I don’t know if they have been asked before.
The first one is about the “wrap-around” property of the gameboard mentioned on page 8 of the rulebook. I’d like to ask where is the sea zone south of Argentina Chile adjectent to? sea zone C? Or that sea zone doesn’t “wrap-around”? Also, could anyone tell me does the sea zone of New Zealand “wrap-around”?
The second question is about the 2 canals. For Panama Canal, the rulebook has explicitly listed that Paanama territory has to be controlled at the beginning of the turn for the naval units to use the canal. However, I couldn’t find this condition for Suez Canal in the rulebook. So, I’d like to know if my naval units can use Suez Canal on the same turn that I just conquered it?
Thanks for your attention. :)

A canal is a canal. Be it Panama or Suez.
The answer is “NO!”

It is generaly accepted that you have to own both Egypt and Syria at the begining of your turn in order to use the Suez Canal. I don’t recall if it is stated in the rule book.
