You know, I was going to ask why we had cannons and battleships, but then I felt like I would be a nerd (and a picky one at that) for asking.

Note that the colors can be fairly easily changes. I think you can

Next question answered for group benefit -

YES - Neutral units can have their support cut like any other unit.
