Description
An exciting, fast paced game recreating tactical submarine actions during World War II. Critical elements of submarine warfare are presented, including: sonar, evasion and maneuver, torpedo attacks, collisions, anti-submarine weapons, and gunnery. The game is realistic, yet still retains a high degree of playability. Each submarine's location is secretly plotted on Submarine Data Sheets.
True to life, escorts must frantically "ping" with sonar in search of their deadly adversaries stalking beneath the surface. After detecting their elusive prey, anti-submarine weapons such as depth charges must be used to destroy them. But watch out! A sudden explosion may mean instant death for your ship, as a torpedo slams into your hull.
The 21 scenarios included are drawn from the Atlantic, Mediterranean and the Pacific. They include convoy battles, hunter-killer actions, aircraft carrier sinkings, and one-on-one encounters. Submarines from most major belligerents are included, such as Wahoo, U-47, Splendid, Surcouf, I-19 and Tang. Escorts like Stark, England, Walker and Reuben James are also included. Playing time ranges from 30 minutes for one-on-one battles, to six hours for convoy actions. Each hex represents 100 yards, with each turn equaling 60 seconds of real time. Scenarios are from 10 to 30 turns in length.
A simple yet elegant system that is easy to learn, instructive and fun to play.
