Sorry still got no time for playing. First another unexpected assignment came in that needed to be finished by Friday, and now we are visiting the relatives for Easter. (Which means no way to sneak away to a computer for more than 15min... )

 

[Lanzelot]

Submarine attacks CLAA Atlanta, but doesn't even scratch it.


Eastern Front: Gangut bombarded by HB. A submarine attacks this stack (don't know which ship, it didn't let me choose?!) but again doesn't manage to even scratch the Russian ship. (These submarines are quite worthless. Why can't I choose all ships as targets? Looks like I can attack only the strong ships, which can't be sunk anyway.
Guderian retakes Rostock.

A couple of advanced Russian units and some roads bombarded. 6Th Army kills Russian MG between Minsk and Moscow.

Submarines cannot stealth attack destroyers, so if it was just the Gangut and destroyers (I don't know what other ships were there) then it would automatically attack whatever ship was on top, the BB, if all the other ships were destroyers.

Ok, thanks. The stack had 4 units: BB, Heavy Cruiser, Destroyer, Transport. It was not the battleship, that I attacked, because that had been bombed down to 2/4 and the ship that got attacked was still green (that much I could tell). So if I can't stealth attack destroyers and transports, then it must have been the cruiser that got attacked. But then I don't understand, why the game didn't let me choose between the BB and the cruiser?! IIRC when attacking the American stack, I was able to choose between BBs and other types of ships.

The reason you couldn't choose between the battlship and the cruiser is
because the soviet heavy cruiser is not on the "stealth attack list" for the
u-boat. Another bug I need to fix.
