Malta, Strongest navy in the world?

[Zin3dineZidane10]

So...in my British Campaign I saw that the Knights of St. John had one stack and a half of all ship of the lines. That dwarfs my navy.

Malta took Tunis in my current campaign. Severe lulz.

We will try to do two things in IS 2.2.1 (not in the Beta):

• To limit the Navy to only 10 ships; However in battle it would be possible to have more than 10 ships (in case of reinforcement). It will decrease the mega-boat armies impossible to counter.
• We will finish what isabelxxx purposed, the end XIXth colonization, you will no see Britain, or Austria or any faction invading north Africa.

I do not know if it is completely possible, we will have to study that.

Why wouldn't attacking Africa be an option for the AI? I mean, along with the inevitable rebellions that invading those regions causes, it's fairly accurate.

As for the naval limit, 10 is also a little low.
