@nebnworb yea they get the bit in their mouth and they can run all over the place. Little annoying things that if they don’t react and you can support, can really be irritating. Of course they can kinda do the same thing, depending on USA strategy : )

Nice!! That’s what I wanted, and as always you are so fast
Thanks Krieghund, have a nice day

Just for fun:
Kamikazes were involved in my situation also 😎
So it can be a big deal that you have to declare before kamikaze attacks rather than after.But it didn’t matter because I had 2 mighty subs that @oysteilo didn’t dare attack with a single destroyer in an amphibious assault attempt. He wanted Korea, and he got it. I never saw it coming.

Ok. Here’s a related amphib assault question – no kamikazi though.
US assaults FIC with 1 Sub + transports
Japan has 3 subsAs the US attacker, I can ignore the subs and launch an amphib assault, if the transport is escorted by a “warship” because of the following in the rules
“A transport that is part of an amphibious assault must end its movement in a friendly sea zone (or one that could become friendly as result of sea combat) from which it can conduct the assault. However, a transport is not allowed to offload land units for an amphibious assault in a sea zone containing 1 or more ignored enemy submarines unless at least 1 warship belonging to the attacking power is also present in the sea zone at the end of the Combat Move phase.”
Subs do not make a SZ friendly or hostile. So what effect does the escorting sub do?
One interpretation is that a sub is a “warship” and suppresses the other subs. But I see it equally possible that “warship” = surface vessel, and thus the escort cannot suppress the subs. Combat will occur if the defender wishes to fight–he has the option to submerge. -
Subs are warships - just not surface warships (see the heading under Sea Units on p. 31 of the Europe rulebook).

@matttodd1 ok. Thanks for that clarification
