question about sub

[shaigan]

ok me and my friend are not sure so i explain the situation.he attack my only 1 sub whit a battleship is battleship hit on a 5 since he got japan most powerfull battelship national advantage he roll a 6 the i roll a 2 so his battleship is on the side.where the rule book is not clear is since he attack me do he have to decide to retreat or stay in the battle before i decide to submerge my sub.this was important for me because if he retreat my sub would have sail all away to south africa whit 1 move ahead of is battleship.so since nobody was sure i did submerge the sub and got kill next round.

From your question, you're playing Revised, not 1942, so this belongs in the Revised Forum.  In Revised, the attacker decides whether to retreat/submerge before the defender decides whether to submerge, so your friend could retreat before you could submerge.

i knew it from the date of release it was revise but because.i did buy the game in 2005 but nowhere on my box it say revise and when i read behind the box it also say spring of 1942 the world is at war oups

so anyway that mean the attacker must choose to retreat before the defender sub choose to submerge or not thx alot.
