@DoManMacgee Hi DMM & thanks for the response… Really appreciate that these forums have experienced players who weigh in on things. It was OOB with a 12 bid.
That’s pretty much what Japan did - eliminate the threats and take back the 2 islands as advantageously as possible while still consolidating the fleet. I was just surprised how long it then took for Japan to have any pressure westward. India, in spite of losing 2 men on the initial Kwangtung foray, stayed around for quite a while (minimal investment for a KGF).
What helped, no doubt, was that Russia traded unfavourably in the initial Caucasus strafe (dice game, lost 3 inf to Germany’s 2, and took W Russia at odds) and the Germans (rather than push hard back immediately), decided to save the Med fleet with a carrier. This made the Egypt / Africa game interesting, but maybe a different buy on G1 and the Germans win sooner. Always tough to say.
But, as many have pointed out here, the Axis have such a strong start in this game it was nice to have a hotly contested battle!
Rule question subs, destroyer and bombers

Hi everybody,
I am sorry if this question popped up before, I couldnt find any related topics.
Consider the following situation.
5 German subs are attacked by one british destroyer and 1 british bomber (all in the same sea zone). The UK destroyer enables the bomber to attack the subs. What happens if the UK destroyer is killed in the first round of the combat? Does the effect of the destroyer still last for the whole battle even after it is destroyed? Or does the battle end after this turn?
And if the battle goes on, can only the bomber attack the subs or can the subs also fire on the bomber???I hope that this is understandable!
Thank you!

Hi Josn. No, if you lose the Sub you can no longer hit the Subs with the Bomber.
The Subs cannot hit the Bomber and vice versa. -
What Wittman meant to say was, if you lose the Destroyer, then your bomber can no longer attack the Subs. You would only have combat for one round if you lose your Destroyer in round one. You have to have Destroyers present to hit Subs with aircraft in combat. Sub hits can never be allocated to air units.
