Is this sequence correct? My question regards when the casualties from sub fire are removed, if the order should be as it is or 3-5-4-6
Before Combat
The order is right, but this looks funny:
- Defender chooses the casualties from the Surprise Strike. Unless he chooses subs, those defending units are removed at step 7 and can’t defend later (since there’s no Destroyer)
The defending (and attacking) Surprise Strike casualties are always removed at step 7, whether they’re subs or not. The difference is that the subs will get to fire (in step 5) before they’re removed (in step 7) if there are no opposing destroyers. If there are opposing destroyers, the subs will be removed before they can fire, just like everything else.

Did you say that right?
I thought if my side (country) has destroyers, then the enemy subs have no surprise first strike. There for that bolded portion should read:
If there are friendly destroyers, the defending subs will be removed after they can fire, just like everything else.
“If there are opposing (attacking) destroyers, the (defending) subs will be removed (in step 7) before they can fire (in step 9, since they don’t get a Surprise Strike), just like everything else.”
But what you said is true, too.
Krieghund, just reworded it based on your input. How does it sound now?
Much better. I’d also recommend two more tweaks for clarity:
- Attacking Units fire (if there are Defending Destroyers, Attacking Subs are included on this step instead of step 3)
- Defending Units fire (if there are Attacking Destroyers, Defending Subs are included on this step instead of step 5)
Perfect. Thanks a lot. :)
If I understand this correctly, this is changed from the revised naval combat sequence.
In Revised, defending subs could ‘absorb’ surprise strikes in the sense that the defending sub would still get to shoot it’s defensive shot.
According to the sequence listed here, this is no longer the case.
Did I read this correctly?
It depends on whether or not the defending subs get a Surprise Strike. If the do, they will still fire if they’re hit by the attacker’s Surprise Strike. If they don’t, they’ll be removed before they can fire.
This is a change from Revised. In Revised, subs always fired at the same point in the combat sequence. The difference the presence of enemy destroyers made was when the casualties were removed. In Anniversary, subs actually fire at different points in the combat sequence depending on whether or not there are enemy destroyers.
