Thank you my lord.
Sub-Stalling ? NOT answered on the site…..
-
it was to my friends understanding that a sub can submerge (stall) instead of attacking….
which is why a sub can move into a territory and submerge because of the sneak attack before combat begins.
so the question I/WE have is that can a sub move into a territory and stall an oceanice fleet that has a destroyer in it? the destroyr nullifies the sneak attack so can the sub stall without engaging at least 1 round of combat with the force containing a destroyer???
looking for SS, but anyones answer will work

In AAPacific, an attacking sub can immediately submerge without engaging in a round of combat. That is the case even if a defending DD is present in the sea zone being attacked.
The best essay ever prepared on substalling is by James Redford (Teeth and Tissue) and can be found here: http://www.rjware.net/DOI/substall/index.htm

Is that your essay? I’d like to link to and republish it here.

It is not my essay. As I mentioned, it was prepared by James Redford, a former DOI member. I don’t know how to contact him, but the best bet is to contact Rich at wargamer’s Club at this email: info[at]wargamersclub.org… He may be able to get or give approval for publishing.
