Sub combat question

Amphibious assaults can be done in two steps, consisting of a sea battle and a land battle.  In your example, both the cruiser and the transport would attack the destroyer.  If the attackers win, the transport can offload and the land battle will occur.  If the transport ends up retreating (or being sunk), the land battle will not occur and the transport may not offload.

Ok, thanks for the answers, it removes any doubts :)

@Battlingmaxo:

as an aside abattlemap is incorrect on  AA50 42 setup….it lists dd and trn for sz1; game lists ca and dd

I read from my setup card: 1 Cruiser, 1 Transport for SZ 1 in the 42 szenario.

Anyway the setup of ABattlemap AA50 42 setup is wrong in SZ1.

I added this issue to the Modules-thread. Thank you!

now now, lets not make fun of virgins.  i’m playing joe cold, i think i’m doing alright, but its just about to be rnd 3, and this is where the allies usually get it together.  we’ll see.

Approximately half of the U-Boat losses were due to Aircraft.

However in this version of Axis and Allies subs may not be hit by aircraft without an attacking destroyer present. Axis and Allies is not a very accurate recreation of WWII. However, it is a fun game.

Subs submerge before any dice are rolled, attacker first then defender.  At the time the USA player rolled his hits, the decision should have already been made and acted upon.
