G40 2nd Ed wheatbeer (Axis) vs Thran (Allies)

In the case of SZ91: Aircraft are unable to hit submarines (whether submerged or not) unless they have a destroyer. So you may wish to bring a destroyer to SZ91 or use that fighter for something else.

In the case of SZ112: The UK isn’t attacking SZ112, so there’s no submerge or surface choice necessary.

No problem … the 2nd edition FAQ thread (where Kreighund gives official rulings) is over 150 pages  :lol:

It’s a crazy game rules-wise.

Working on a turn in another game, so there will be a little delay.

Any pace works for me.

Sorry I hit the British so hard!

I just looked at the Pacific and I see you have loaded transports in SZ37 and SZ42 (plus one in SZ104).

This is a perfectly legal … but it seems very unusual, unless your intention is to tempt me into attacking those SZs?

It’s a distinct possibility  :-D
