There seems to be something wrong with interactions regarding upgrading subs (could just be units in general). I attacked a stack of 2 subs with 20 cruisers, did it with 10 first, then the second 10, and it did zero damage. There was also one 2 man sub stack that I attacked with nav bombers and it did disappear, weird thing tough it didn't get reported in the newspaper, not in the news and not in the casualty report so I still am not sure if it died or not.

Oh damn. Didn't realize they did that.K.Rokossovski wrote:
That's true; but when it actually gets there and the target is out of range now, it will figure out a route to where the target unit is now, and he can fire on it again; then start moving again along that second order.
This cruiser stack has been chasing my BB for awhile now. The BB has speed 61 km/hr and the cruiser/DD stack should be at least 75 km/hr. I can't see it's speed atm, but when I checked it before it was definitely faster. However, it doesn't seem to be able to catch my BB. When I've seen it come to the end of it's current target it restarted within a second or so. I don't understand why it isn't catching up, unless it is delaying at the end of sub paths more than I've observed.K.Rokossovski wrote:
When you set an attack onto a UNIT you can see (as opposed to attacking a PLACE), the attacking unit can somehow keep track of the target unit after sight is lost, and will follow it to the edges of the world until a new order is set (or either is destroyed of course).
update: The cruiser stack is now gaining on me. I think what might have happened is that he fired and missed his shot and he stayed in same place for 30 minutes at some point.
Could also have a stacked sub slowing it down (ignore if your BB has a destroyer with it, as I assume you do)
It could have subs, but they are faster than me. I don't remember the exact value but it was at least 10 faster. Anyway, it does catch me, but it never hits me since I'm moving away and I think sometimes it fires and misses and delays once that happens. So it catches up fires, delays, catches back up ... etc. No, I don't have DDs, I never bother with them. Usually I only make subs and sometimes I'll make BBs later in the game, mostly for fun.
I'm leading this CL/DD stack into a nasty trap
