Amphibious assaults can be done in two steps, consisting of a sea battle and a land battle. In your example, both the cruiser and the transport would attack the destroyer. If the attackers win, the transport can offload and the land battle will occur. If the transport ends up retreating (or being sunk), the land battle will not occur and the transport may not offload.

can a sub move into a hostile sea zone & submerge with no attack if no destroyers are present?
can a tank move 1, load onto a transport, then unload all in same turn?

Yes.

No. Loading and/or unloading uses a land unit’s entire move. It may not move before loading or after unloading.

I always felt that it was a Scam that my Arm can’t move 1 and load/unload after :S
Infantry, Artillery, and AA Guns just take 1 movement point to do the same! Where does that Other Movement point just VANISH to!?!?!

Don’t think of it as losing one move point with the tank, think of it as getting +1 move for the tank and +2 move for the infantry! (1 move + 2 oceanic move)

Good point commander!
