Sub surprise attacks

A sub, BB and transport walk into a bar. The sub walks out. DAMN DICE!!!

Hobbits.  They lie to you then they steal your stuff.   :roll:

Bunnies. Always thinking about carrots  :roll:

@Drill:

My dad had a destroyer and a bomber, and attacked my 2 subs.

I got a hit right away, so he took off his destroyer.  So the battle is over, right?  :)

The destroyer and the bomber will still perform their attacking rolls… since there’s a destroyer it negates the subs’s first strike ability and allow both destroyer and bomber to perform their attack. Then the battle will be over since the bomber can’t attack the subs by itself.

its ALL counter-intuitive because generally speaking, if the attacking force doesn’t want to kill subs, they wouldn’t aim at subs  :lol:  I can’t think of any tactics that would force the attacker to dispatch the subs before the transports, but thems the rules.

@Col.Stauffenberg:

Almost never. In fact, one of my specialities is the widdle. I will attack a superior infantry stack if I have enough hardware that can retreat to a safe position.

Aw.  Cute widdle infantriez.

Don’t make fun of my spelling and I won’t make fun of your corny jokes.

Yes, that’s correct.  The move is done after the attacker finishes all battles, but before the attacker makes any noncombat movements.

Okay that will make me think about my plans a bit.

Thanks
