Interesting. Yes the ability to put subs in the med probably greatly increases their utility by precluding the uk from placing a destroyer in the english channel to protect a landing in Morocco, which hopefully bus Italy some time to earn some objective money. I know they only have two, but with such a small economy the NOs increase Italy’s capacity to contribute by quite a bit, proportionally speaking.
Does it annoy anyone else…?

…that the German u-boat in sz8 can attack the US destroyer/2trans in sz10 on the first turn? :-o
There’s a 40% chance you lose the sub, 20% of a draw (transports live) and a 40% chance of WHAM :evil: - 24 bucks worth of american navy dead. Pretty hard for the allies to recover from that, and it means the dice are having the final say…
Though there are some nasty ways japan’s J1 attacks can pan out in 1942, so maybe all is fair in love and war?

German subs are best used against limeys in z2 (unless you get some fancy tech)

Then what are you using against the destr/cruiser in sz 12 ? Aircrafts ?
-
1 destroyer plus 2 fighters go against the cruiser and destroyer in sz12.
2 subs plus 1 fighter plus 1 bomber go against the sub, transport, destroyer and battleship in sz2 OR use the bomber and fighter somewhere else and send the both subs against the cruiser and destroyer in sz1
