@Manstein:

of course, i’m happy to take my chances if you want to re-roll the second round

yeah, trust me, everything done was proper.  if you have a defending sub present, the attacker can take subs as casualties for any fighter hits.  the battle went pretty much on odds, within one hit, so i guess you should consider yourself fortunate.  with my very good first round attack roll, it could have gone much worse for you…  :-)

[boldfresh]

yeah the defense of russia against germany was an upper 5% result in my favor (finally!) but when you take into account the extra hits you got with the japs and the italians before attacking with the germans, it was probably about on odds as a whole for the three attacks…
