Lol stupid me. The infantry from Northern Italy was supposed to hop on the transport to attack Alexandria. And I forgot to add a Para as well to the battle. Luckily, it wouldn’t have changed anything. If it did, I would be so pissed!

I am wondering, during this battle, after the DD has been destroyed, can I retreat my aircraft while my submarines stay in SZ 109? Because TripleA gives me the option to retreat first. If I say yes, my planes can retreat, but my subs retreat as well to a different sea zone. When I click continue, my submarines submerge, while my planes go for another round of combat. Does TripleA do this incorrectly?

@Panther

We have a question. When you attack a Sea Zone with aircraft and submarines and want to retreat during battle, is it possible to retreat the aircraft and let the submarines stay in that sea zone, if no destroyer is present? TripleA gives the following options.

Retreat:
The submarines retreat and move back to one sea zone where they came from, the aircraft can retreat as usual.

Continue:
The submarines are given the option to submerge and stay in the sea zone, while the aircraft have to go through one more round of combat. After that, they can retreat.

We are wondering if TripleA does it incorrectly here, and you can retreat aircraft while at the same time submerging your submarines in the same round of combat.

I think I will move one extra infantry to Belarus, just in case :)

Oh lol it didn’t even count in the extra infantry I edited into Belarus. I thought that would work. I probably have to do that in edit next time as you recommended :)
