Re: [eia] Anglo-Turkish naval phase, 10/05 (part II)

What if I do not want to intercept any fleets?
 

6.2.3.1.2.3: A fleet entering a blockade box may only be intercepted by enemy fleets which currently occupy that blockade box and a fleet in a blockade box may only intercept enemy fleets which enter that blockade box (and the interception is automatic if attempted)

If I do not intercept, is there actually a battle?  I guess I am unclear about this.

Hmm. I guess each time a fleet moves into the blockade box, the Spanish
should get an opportunity to intercept, although if they do they'll have to
fight all of the enemy ships already there. This is because all of a major
power's, or two or more combined powers', fleets in one place are considered
one stack (6.2.2).

I assumed that Danny didn't want to make interception attempts at all when I
got his email. My mistake, sorry. So the Spanish may choose to intercept
the British II fleet, and attack Nelson and the three British fleets, or
intercept when the Portuguese arrive and attack those four fleets, or
intercept the Swedes and attack five fleets.
