Destroyers delay the removal of sub casualties, allowing them to fire back in their normal step even if they are hit by a sub. However, both attacking and defending subs always fire in the Opening Fire step, so a defending sub will return fire even if it is hit, regardless of the presence of destroyers. This is because fire within a step is simultaneous. In effect, the presence of a destroyer only affects the ability of surface vessels to return fire when hit by subs.
Transport question
-
I have a quick question, if a transport move during the combat move phase, can it load and off-load that turn? For example, Germany builds a naval unit in sz5, and there are British units there, and they move their transports out, could they load units from Britain to offload into a friendly terroritory?
Thanks for the answer.

If a transport LOADS during Combat movement, it must OFFLOAD in Combat Movement also (i.e. amphib assault).
