There is no rolling versus defenseless transports. By definition, transports that can retreat are not defenseless, so combat would be conducted normally.
Perfect. Thanks!
Has anyone ever decided NOT to scramble island fighters from say Hawaii an let the USN just die; then use them in a counterstrike?
Just curious…
Yoiu choose weather to scramble after the attacker has said weather his planes are attacking land or sea, right.
Because if your got 2 aircraft, and commet them to the sea, where they then decide to hold theirs back, you will be crushed in the amfib assult.
Sure, my opponents did in our first game: I was the Japan.
I attacked the US navy at Hawaii with my huge Imperial Navy: obviously I destroyed all while they don’t scrambled any fighter nor tactical bomber. At his turn, the US player counter-attacked my ships, destroying all them… We closed the game and immediately started a second one: there’s no fun in playing Pacific without ships! :D
