The Germans have no destroyer present, therefore the defending air units can not hit the sub, and of course the sub can never hit planes. Think of it in terms of the combined arms rule, air units can only hit subs if they are combined with at least 1 participating destroyer, the difference with this particular combined arms is that it works while attacking and defending. In the scenario that you described, the sub would destroy the remaining transport without rolling and the defending fighters can do nothing.
Question for Krieghund?
-
Before you activate a friendly minor by moving a ground unit into the territory, can you land your aircraft in the territory during the non-combat movement phase? Or, do you have to activate the friendly by moving a ground unit into the territory first?
A follow up question. If you activate the minor w/a ground unit, can you land aircraft in the territory the same turn you activate it or do the same rules apply to aircraft during the non-combat phase that doesn’t allow you to land in a territory the same turn you conquer it? Thanks in advance!
-
You can’t land air units in territories that were not friendly at the start of your turn. Friendly neutral is not friendly.

Krieghund,
Can newly purchased Chinese units be placed by the Chinese on a newly captured territory the same turn in Alpha 2?
Also a single destroyer blocks an amphibious attack?
Thanks for all the help

I have a question for Krieghund as well, and I figured it would be easier to ask it here than to post a new thread. So, I want to know how convoys contribute to Allied income, and what the whole deal with them is. Also, it says in the rulebook that Air Bases and Naval Bases have AA capacity, does that mean if there’s a spot with an Air Base, Naval Base, and AA that all three fire at attacking planes, or just one?

Convoys don’t contribute to anyone’s income, only take away income.
And it depends, if it’s a bombing run on one of the bases or complexes, then they have a built in AA gun. The AA gun piece is there only to defend against actual battles with air units.
-
Alright, I understand now about convoys. Also, one more question concerning the AA, do Major and/or Minor Industrial Complexes have built in AA as well?
-
Yes, ever facility built has it’s own AA.
The attacker must choose which facility he is bombing FIRST, then the defender rolls.
