Thank you. Had not seen that and was unhappy to contradict Kriegkund, but could not see any difference with what I had said. Now I realise without a japanese DOW against UK/Anzac a Japanese player could have moved through an occupied sea hex on its way to a Dutch territory. Now it cannot. Though, of course, my way and knowing I was provoking war with UK/Anzac, I would have attacked them too and, therefore, not moved illegally through a sea zone . You have to love Japan.
Submarine question
-
if one sub attacks another sub, can the defending sub submerge before being shot at?
-
Yes indeed.
When the attacking sub make his combat-move, the defending sub may choose to submerge or fight.
…unless there is an attacking destroyer too
-
Really? I had no idea. How does that make sense? If one sub submerges to flee, the other could also submerge to pursue it. Is this true that subs can submerge against other subs?
-
yes. they can disappear in to the dark deep sea and only the almighty destroyer can find them.
