Or perhaps if shore fortifications were introduced, “sudden strike” bombardment could be reintroduced to keep the balance from shifting too far to defense for amphibious assaults…
Bombarding
-
Let’s say the attackers have 1 cruiser and 1 transport carry 2 infantry
The defender has 1 transport in the sea zone and 1 infantry defending the island
The attacker moves in to take the island.The transport dies automatically, and the cruiser can’t bombard, right?
In tripleA it seems I can ignore the transport and still bombard. Is this true?
Or is it such that I kill the transport and can bombard? -
You have the choice of sinking the transport or bombarding. You can’t do both.
