Thank you all.

Hi all, I have a doubt. Supose I have a submarine and I attack an aircraft carrier, I miss the shot in the opening fire phase, so can I submerge right now or I must wait for the carrier to shoot back at me?.
The manual says that all the units must fire after the opening fire phase but my submarine already fired, so it can’t fire again therefore nobody can shoot back, right?

Thanks.

One more doubt, imagine that both, attacker and defender have submarines submerged, at the end of the non combat movement they all resurface or only the attacker’s ones?, I think that all of them but I’m not sure at all.

Thanks.

Thank you both, it’s crystal clear now  .

Thanks for your answer and about my english  .

1.- You say that you can do a traditional retreat or a submerge with attacking subs, but the manual says:
“Submarines on both sides may retreat during this step by submerging.It remains submerged until the end of the noncombat move phase. (Submerged submarines do not stop enemy sea units from moving through their sea zone.)”

I think that the only way a submarine can retreat is by submerging, not the traditional way. Am I right?

2.- I have another doubt about the quote below, the manual says “Submerged submarines do not stop enemy sea units from moving through their sea zone”, I think this is only possible on a defending submarine that retreats (submerge) making possible for the opposite player get move through it, isn’ it?.

Thanks in advance.

Hi all, after reading the manual I have some questions:

1.- When I retreat a submarine, I must submerge it, but what for?, what is the advantage of this if when I finish the non combat move I must emerge it?.

2.- If I finish an attack turn and after removing casualties I decide to attack again, but antiaircraft guns and battleships that conducted shore bombardment are already over the gameboard, so does the antiaircraft loose its opening fire capabilities in this new attack?.

3.- If I have submarines in the last attack, so they loose their opening fire too?.

I hope you can understand me, english is not my first tongue.

Thanks.
