scramble and don’t submerge the sub.

Not sure, but I think you are right.

It´s ok, we can carry on.

@Soulblighter:

Question. The submarine couldn’t kill the TT, because the fighter was still alive and couldn’t be targeted by the submarine. Shouldn’t the TT be dead?

Soul, I looked back at the combat and you are correct… the way the combat turned out the TT is dead.

Once the German sub/ cruiser where sunk, there was no way for the Axis player to attack that Russian sub (the German plane cannot hit it subs without a destroyer present).

I think Triplea gets hung up on the “transport is taken as the last casualty” issue.  But in this unusual case the transport would die even while there is a fighter still in the air because it can’t hit a sub with no destroyer.  Eventually the sub will roll a 1 or 2 and sink it.

I have to say the allies side has been enjoying some very lucky dice throughout this game so far.  Thank you God.  Please continue.  :-)
