INTRODUCTION
August 1939. The Second World War is about to begin. The grey wolves, the U-
boats of the German Kriegsmarine, take to the sea. There will be war in the
Atlantic. The goal – to cut England’s lifelines.
Six years later, the war ends, and Germany lays in ruins. The U-boat fleet is all but
wiped out, 30,000 of its 40,000 men having died at sea. Still, fighting hard but fair,
they have accomplished success beyond all expectations and out of proportion to
their strength. At some points during the war, they had come close to bringing the
British Empire to its knees.
On the Allied side, the cost of victory has been even higher. More than 30,000
merchant seamen have been lost in this struggle, along with many thousands of
servicemen from all branches of the military. About 20 million tons of merchant
tonnage lies under the sea.
And the emotional cost of the war has been even greater.
Yet, this is also a time of explosive technological development. Allied anti-
submarine defenses have discovered how to defend against the U-boat and
submarine warfare in general.
But the real breakthrough is taking place in Germany. Having just entered operational
service, yet never used in actual combat, the revolutionary Type XXI U-boat is a
prototype for post-war submarine development in the world’s major naval fleets.
This, alone, is testimony to the high level of professionalism and experience of the U-
boat force and the engineers behind them.
This game pays homage everyone – Allied or Axis – who served at sea during the
crucial years of World War II.
