Submarines

I have a question regarding submarines, i moved a submarine up to a Chinese city (it wasnt even next to it, it was one square away) and on the next turn i got a warning from the Chinese saying that they are disturbed by the build up of forces near this city... I thought that the only things that can see subs were AEGIS Cruisers, Destroyers and other subs. As you can see from the screenshot there are no other units in the region, so how did they know it was there??

When i continued there turned out to be a Chinese battleship on the other side of the whale in the picture, but this surely would have been too far away to see me, and battleships cant see subs anyway...

I have Conquests v1.13 and playing the Vikings, any suggestions?
I like sneaking about and they spoiled my fun!

Are you absolutely sure that's the only unit of yours in their territory? Guess you must be, or else you wouldn't post... but hey, double checking never hurt!

Tell your embassy to investigate Hangchow. I'm sure that will answer your question.

I did check there are no other units there, i also investigated the city and there is a boat garrisoned there! I think its a destroyer but cant be sure as i cant click on it..... Ok i just thought boats had to be on a water square to be effective... i was really surprised to get rumbled!

Thanks for your suggestions

i think in PTW privateers were removed when you had another unit in territory, and they demanded you to remove your units
