Thanks Krieg, clears it up for me. I would like to see a rule modification whereby the subs could ignore the surface fleet assuming there was no DD in the case where they start out in a hostile SZ thus allowing them to move during the non-combat movement phase. Although, that would hurt me in my present situation so just wait until my game is over before changing the world for me…… wry grin
Sub rules question
-
i have 2 questions, each for Revised and aa50/spring
can you move a submarine into (not through) and stop in an enemy controlled sea zone during combat move, and choose not attack?
can you move a submarine into (not through) and stop in an enemy controlled sea zone during Non-combat move?
does it make a difference for both question if there is a destroyer there? (and also, what about transports, subs, normal ships)
and can you please answer the question for both Revised and AA50/spring1942?
thank you krieg
(i know in aa50 you can move through a sea zone with your sub, unless there is a destroyer there. and same with revised. and i know that in aa50 you can move through submarines with your normal ships, but you can’t do that with revised. the question here is can you stop in a sea zone)

No, you can’t. However, in AA50 and AA42 if there are no enemy destroyers you can submerge at the beginning of the first combat round, effectively avoiding combat.
can you move a submarine into (not through) and stop in an enemy controlled sea zone during Non-combat move?
In Revised, no. In AA50 and AA42, yes, regardless of the presence of enemy destroyers.
