If no landing space can
be found, they are lost
sadly they ditch into the ocean and hope they can paddle to java :)
Go, fellow A&A’ers! :)
This is why its important to keep the units overland/oversea separate and it may affect how you take casualties (losing armor before cheaper stuff) if the first 1-2 rounds of combat go badly for you, you’ll want to lose the seaborne units first, and all of them, so you can run away! run away!
Take the amphibious units as your casualties in the first round. The amphibious units can’t retreat–they have to fight to the end.
