If you can't move to that province, you can't support a move to that province.

"If you can't move to that province, you can't support a move to that province."
But be careful with two coast provinces. A fleet in Gas, for example, can support F GoL to Spa sc, even though Gas cannot move into Spa sc.

That shouldn't be the case; if it is it should be fixed.

That is indeed how the rule works, but it's only a one-way street (e.g. Gascony can support to Spain sc, but Spain sc cannot support to Gascony). The only thing that matters is whether the supporting unit can move to the supported province, so mismatched coast situations still count.

On a related note (sorry, can't edit the preceding post anymore), you can also cut support in a mismatched coast situation, such as in this image:

Think of it this way. I have a fleet in Gas and a fleet in Mar. Two units that could move into Spa. If you had an army in Spa, without the rule, your one unit could hold off my two. That doesn't make sense.
