FATHOMS 40™BY RANDY TURNER

DIVE! DIVE! DIVE! The alarm sounds. Darkness surrounds you. The absolute silence of the sea is almost unbearable. Deep beneath the ocean's surface, you wait it out. Sweat begins to stream. Can your U-Boat take the pressure? Will your steel-eyed crew crack under stress?

A full convoy Allied destroyers and tankers are passing by overhead. Then, suddenly, depth charges explode all around you! Shock waves rock the submarine. But you're not frightened. After all, you're the Captain!

Fathoms 40 realistically simulates the operations of a Mark XXI U-Boat in the last, desperate days of WWII. It combines board game strategy with computer animation. With sonar, you'll track the enemy. Using the periscope, you'll chase them through the North Atlantic. Finally, you'll fire torpedoes and blast ships out of their supply routes.

And if you should survive? Congratulations! You'll be awarded the Iron Cross and made an Admiral. Don't let it go to your head, though, for another mission awaits you. To Fathoms 40.
