@P@nther:
So in my scenario the defending sub can submerge and avoid taking the hit ???
No. The decision to submerge is made in the “Press Attack or Retreat Step”.
This is before rolling the dice again.
Ah! Enlightenment. Many thanks :-)
how do you get between SZ5 & SZ6? can ships get through that tiny opening at the bottom of Norway and the top of Western Europe?
Yes, the Strait of Denmark is open to shipping.
one other quick question please… when a bomber or fighter attack a ship in the sea, do they get unlimited shots??
Yes. Air attacks (other than SBRs) work in the same way as any other attack. The attack continues until one side or the other (or both) is destroyed, or the attacker retreats (or the defender submerges if it’s a sub).
