Description

Take command of a U-Boat in WWII and hunt down and destroy allied convoys. This is never an easy task, their escorts and aircraft are waiting to ruin your day.

Campaigns can be started in one of several time slots, allowing you to play for the entire war if you wish. Specific missions aren't required because the engine "rolls up" convoys and targets, meaning every time you play the missions will change.

The CD-version adds extensive on-line manual, where you can find maps, tactics tips, video interviews with German U-boat aces and other stuff.
