In that case, any hits scored by the fighters have to be assigned to the AC. The only units that can hit the subs are the cruisers and that is only if the subs decided not to submerge. Plus they would get their suprise strike. They can submerge because there is no enemy destroyer. Basically, destroyers are anti-sub units. Also, remember that hits scored by subs can never be assigned to aircraft.
Minis question
-
I moved and don’t have access to my AAEurope or D-Day… Is there a difference between the US fighter minis in those from the mini in AAA50th? I didn’t think there was, but I read on a post somewhere here that it’s a Hellcat in the former, as opposed to the Corsairs that came with AAA50th…
Thanks in advance…

It’s an F-4 Hellcat in AA50 and a P-38 Lightning in the other two.

Really? Kinda thought it was suppose to be a Corsair - thought as much because of all the Corsairs on the box and in the rule book… wrongly assumed I guess (errr…or am I totally baffled and those are Hellcats on the box?!). I just perused some pics… Europe Kreig, it is the P-38, yes. But uhhh… the pics of D-Day I’m finding don’t look like P-38’s… Is there a difference between the AAA50th US fighters and D-Day US fighters?

The fighters in the AA50 box art are Corsairs, but the pieces are Hellcats. My copy of D-Day has P-38s, but it’s always possible that later print runs could have different pieces.

Ah - the BGG photos of the D-Day fighters are one props, I think they’re the same as the AAA50th. Damns… eh eh eh - I painted all my US minis from AAA50th as Corsairs. I didn’t think it was that much of a stretch - considering that the sculpt isn’t the greatest…
Much obliged Wardog!
