Ships and artillery limited?

Due to the size of a map I have reduced artillery to 50% but does this limit ships as well?

Sorry. Bad post on my part. It was very late here.
In the SEDCS it is possible to reduce historic artillery ranges. Which we/I have been done due to the maps size. In our case we reduced it to 50%
But I was wondering if warships heavy guns get the same limitation?

There is no way to set naval gunnery ranges using SEOW (or FMB which is how SEOW interacts with IL-2).
It is possible to alter ship gunnery ranges via a Mod, but that is not relevant here.
Oh, and by the way, the engagement range setting in SEOW merely changes the range at which a given unit will open fire. It may actually shoot at longer ranges after it has commenced firing.

Thanks 4Shades.
I had my suspicion about that, but thanks for confirming it.
It is nice to get an experts opinion
We begun an campaign on the Mediteranian map (Africa-Italy-Greece map). Where the allies are crawling up the Italien boot. Unfortunately the map is than 1/4 scale. Due to this we had to change a lot of setting in the SEDCS in order to get a more realistic enviroment.
The map is beautiful, but as the the campaign progress the planners and pilots are getting more and more annoyed. I think this should be a warning to others of using mpas of less that ½ size if there are ground movements.
