20 Convoy Casualty Tokens/Dived Submarine Tokens
- The Convoy Casualty side is used to mark sunk convoy ships on the Morale Board.
- The Dived Submarine side is used to mark Submarines (once returned to the World Map) that escaped combat by diving.
Convoy Casualties
For each Resource lost in a Convoy Raid, place a Convoy Casualty Token on the Morale Board in the "SUBMARINE" box of the Casualty List corresponding to the Nation which controlled the Convoy. (Convoy Casualty Tokens are worth 6 Casualty Points each in Phase 6: Morale.)
For example, during a raid, if 2 yellow convoy silhouettes and 1 blue convoy silhouette are sunk, the Nation suffering the Resource losses will gain 18 Casualty Points (6 Casualty Points x 3 silhouettes).
NOTE: A Resource must be actually lost before a Convoy Casualty Token can be applied. See "Resource Loss Limits for Raids" at the bottom of page 17.
For example, if Peiping is Embattled and therefore currently produces no Iron, then the linked blue convoy silhouette can't be sunk in a raid. For example, if CHINA controls Iran, then the red convoy silhouette linked to Iran is ignored.
Dived Submarines
At the end of Battle Debrief, Submarines which escaped the now-resolved battle by diving may immediately move to any 1 adjacent sea region, ignoring pinning. If splitting from a Command, these Submarines are placed under a new Command Token (they may not merge with an existing Command). Place a Dived Submarine Token on the escaped Submarine Command to indicate that these Units may NOT be involved in any conflict or raid in their new region for the rest of the current round (new Hotspot Markers are not placed), nor may they eliminate unguarded Enemy Troop Transports in any region.
Escaped Submarines may move even if all Enemy Units were eliminated in the battle and may move into Enemy-occupied regions. Narrow Sea Passage movement restrictions apply normally. If a Nation has multiple Submarines which escaped, they may split up and move to different adjacent sea regions, (or some may not move at all), assuming sufficient Naval Command Tokens are available. Dived Submarine Tokens are removed at the beginning of Phase 5: Refit and Deploy, at which point the Submarines are considered to have resurfaced and may optionally reorganize Commands as normal.
NOTE: Submarines which do not exercise the option to escape to an adjacent sea region are treated normally (they may eliminate unguarded Enemy Troop Transports).
