Re: Axis and Allies Pacific 1940 2nd Edition ( AAP40.2) FAQ/question What is the underlying logic or likely logic in the rule that the defender gets to choose the units to take the hits?

Why would a Kamikaze pilot not be able to choose its intended target, particularly against a capital battleship that already has one hit, or against an amphibious assault transport?

In a Naval battle with more than one capital battleships, wouldn’t the defender logically always take one hit to each battleship before sinking a battleship, but an attacker would logically target the weakened battleship?

@Panther as statued by others, the link to the 2nd edition FAQ is Gold! How do we ask the site owner s to publish that link on this page: https://www.axisandallies.org/resources-downloads/ ? It would have saved me reading throught the whole forum (which was useful anyway :) )
