The Japanese player must declare how many kamikaze strikes will be made….1 Kamikaze token must be spent (no actual air unit is involved) and will be removed from the game after the strike is resolved.
I have 6 kamikaze strikes.
So my question is: if I declare two kamikaze strikes on a transport and I hit on the first kamikaze strike, do I spend up my second kamikaze strike if there is no target left?
Hi Sir Cala.
Yes, you lose the second Kamikaze.
Do not have rules with me, but think you cannot attack a Transport(or a Sub).
Think the Japanese thought it unsporting!
Someone else will confirm.

You are right.
@rulebook:
A kamikaze strike can target any specific
enemy surface warship (not a submarine or transport)
belonging to the attacking power.

I think the limit against TTs is for game balance issues- so you can’t bring in a massive fleet to protect your landing force just to have the TTs magically disappear thanks to Kamikazes. The sub issue is probably a nod to realism. I can’t think of any other reasons why you would want to restrict attacks on subs but not other warships.
thanks
Just how many total kamikaze zones are there?
Shakespeare: there are six: SZ 6,17, 19, 20, 22 and 35.
