What I want to know,
Is what happens in the event that you create a “possible” landing zone by attacking a said SZ full of enemy ships with just one sub. You know there is NO chance of victory - but, because it’s technically possible to land, that is a VIABLE zone.
Say you attack SOUTHERN ITALY with American Planes, they reach S. Italy and only have one more movment space, thus Sz95 and Sz97 are the only possibilties for those planes to land. Sz95 is FULL of Italian Ships. You declare to your opponent, that you are attacking his FAT fleet in Sz95 with 1 sub, in the “hopes” that if you sink his 5 battleships, you will Move your acc into that zone and land your planes.
Naturally, you LOSE Sz95. Are you then FORCED to send your acc to Sz97 and land the planes on it? Or - if because you declared it “could” have been a zone, and you “intended” to go there if there was a victory, can you force your planes to die.
And if that’s NOT the case, what happens in the case, where because of failed combats, there become multiple planes forced to land in zones a carrier could reach…. how do you decide which planes you save? is that up to the player? and are you FORCED to save them due to a combat failure/loss of a viable zone?
