About the Game

Relatively fast, free print-and-play minimalist convoys campaign game to keep Britain alive and build up for D-Day, opposed by U-boats, Kondor(/Vulture) etc. bombers, and the usual suspects: Scharnhorst, Bismarck, a pocket battleship, a raider, etc. Half-year turns. NO GRID. }:-) 3 convoy lanes to lay out with 1 or more convoys per lane plus any escorting battleships or (escort) carriers. Technology/operations advantage can shift from turn to turn. Enigma (although there is no way to keep it secret from the German player. :-/ ) German Admiralty code breaking. Murmansk Run. Sudden death win, if the Allies get enough for D-Day in Summer 1944 or - for a 2-game-win Strategic Victory - even Summer 1943. (24 shipfuls to be accumulated, but hungry Britons and visitors eat 2 each turn.) Interesting to play solitaire, randomly composing the convoys and Atlantic patrols.
