The Germans have no destroyer present, therefore the defending air units can not hit the sub, and of course the sub can never hit planes. Think of it in terms of the combined arms rule, air units can only hit subs if they are combined with at least 1 participating destroyer, the difference with this particular combined arms is that it works while attacking and defending. In the scenario that you described, the sub would destroy the remaining transport without rolling and the defending fighters can do nothing.
Political question regarding Japanese and US relations
-
So my friend is playing Allies and declared war on Jap rnd 2.
I’m thinking I am now at war with UK Pac and ANZAC but not US. And furthermore that US still can’t declare war on me until end of US3. I Attack Dutch Islands, Borneo, Malaya and Shan state on J3.
Can the US attack me US3 or am I Right?
-
You are right Bass, assuming your friend playing Allies declared war on Japan with UK and/or Anzac.
In that scenario Japan is provoked and the US won’t enter the war until the end of US3. Unless Japan declares war on US before then.
-
And to make it 100% clear for you, the U.S. can declare war at the end of turn 3, so they can’t attack you until U.S. 4, but they collect their war money at end of U.S. 3.

Thanks guys. 😊
