Completely re-written rules and reworked charts simulate all the major aspects of the First U-boat War, while all-new artwork immerses the player in the atmosphere of the period.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYour mission is to destroy as much entente shipping and as many capital ships as possible, while advancing your crew quality, winning awards and increasing your commander rank - all while attempting to make it home amidst diminishing odds of survival as the war progresses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eConducting patrols is the heart of the system: each game turn you will resolve encounters against individual ships, convoys, Q-ships and enemy aircraft. Situations you will face will demand decisions such as...\u003cbr\u003eHow will you engage a convoy?\u003cbr\u003eDo you risk closing range for a potentially more lethal attack?\u003cbr\u003eIf the engagement is at night, will you conduct a surface attack?\u003cbr\u003eWith ammunition dwindling, will you try to follow a convoy, or will you look for easier targets?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEvery decision you make during the U-boat war determines whether you and your crew come home as heroes, failures - or not at all.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe game was designed by a ten year BGG veteran and was developed and playtested with the help of the U-boat game aficionados in the BGG community.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Compass Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":8490368991283,"sku":"8490368991283","price":85.11,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic3935560.png?v=1578609416","url":"https:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/products\/raiders-of-the-deep-u-boats-of-the-great-war-1914-18","provider":"vaibhavhospital","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
