- Waiting scrambling orders -
I’ll scramble the fighters.
Before you start rolling though, it is my understanding that planes can in no circumstances hit subs (even with the dd present). We can waive that rule for this game if you like, it makes little difference to me. But if not, it makes you SZ91 attack dicier, which means you may want to devote more navy to it, which means less for the Bismarck, which means perhaps your whole strategy changes.
Up to you, I always played it where anything can hit subs so long as a dd was present until I was corrected in another forum game.
But yeah, Goring is adamant… SCRAMBLE THE FIGHTERS!!!
If DD is present, anything can hit Subs.
Since it may affects strategy, I’ll wait for you hit allocation before rolling defences.
