Radar and submarines
(Sea Lion) Submarines have a spotting of three hexes. Destroyers only two. Still often the next turn immediately British destroyers attack my submarines. Do those radars also see my submarines?

Game isnt flawless.
Re: Radar and submarines
Yes, Radar stations see all 5 hexes out.

Re: Radar and submarines
During the second world war my neighbour worked in a submarine monitoring post using primitive radar.
I suspect that aircraft-detecting radars shouldn't detect submarines (and vice versa) but surfaced submarines being picked up by radar is probably a fair cop.

That should be fair. Funny, your avatar is an U-boot!captainjack wrote:I suspect that aircraft-detecting radars shouldn't detect submarines (and vice versa) but surfaced submarines being picked up by radar is probably a fair cop.
Re: Radar and submarines
When enemy submarines park more than one hex away around a radar station, they are only sometimes visible when I keep ending turns. No clue if this is intended and somehow related to their evade chance of 50% when being attacked.
I would keep distance from radar stations with my submarines!
