The game's title screen. While this remains on screen the game scrolls a string of text between the two dark lines stating the importance of the convoy supply routes

Before the game can begin the player must select a difficulty level

It pays to start on the easy level because this game is no pushover

The Atlantic Convoy phase of the game. There are two convoys at sea, one going to and one returning from England. Collision with either costs a ship.

Every so often the screen changes colour indicating an attack by a U Boat. When it returns to normal the tonnage of supplies required in England will have increased

The destroyer is on the trail of a U Boat. The sonar screen, top centre, indicates range and direction

The depth indicator, top centre, changes colour when the U Boat is in range

This is the depth charge screen. Here the player decides what depths to set the charges for and then launches them

Only after the charges have been launched does the player get chance to see the submarine

These charges were set for 560 and the sub was not that deep. The sub will now sail away to the left and the destroyer will resume patrol

Got one!

All charges have been used up so the destroyer must resupply. The panel in the top centre says it must resupply at Bristol

This is Bristol harbour. The player must guide their ship to the appropriate dock, helpfully marked with a big 'D'

gettingthe ship to the dock is not as easy as it looks. This is the last ship of the fleet and it's sinking

Game over and a dismal summary

Docked at the port of Boston. The black crane moves back and forth during reloading

Bombardment phase, after completing the supply phase. Apparently you can only hit the yellow/black boxes (one destroyed)

Beach head phase. The white LCTs appear in groups and must reach the shores one at a time

Beach head phase, one LCT has landed. Enemy fire also destroyed two of the bigger gunships, but they seem to be useless anyway
