OBSCURE BATTLES 6 - A CRUEL SEA

ADD TO WISHLIST >

In Obscure Battles Volume 6 – A Cruel Sea, the player takes the role of a Submarine commander trying to locate and destroy enemy shipping on a patrol.

This is a exclusively solitaire game: you don’t need any other player to play the game.

Extremely fast playing and simple but detailed , fun game - just a A3 for your map board, the game is extremely easy to play. Just roll a single D6 and pick the targets then see if you can execute a successfull attack and then survice to tell the tale !

  • Game comes with 8 Submarines: German Type 21 and 7C from WW2 and UC/III from WW1, French Surcouf, Japanese Junsen 2 , US Gato from WW2, Soviet Foxtrot and one special yellow submarine :) . 
  • Play the standart game or you can also design your own missions using the supplied Submarine Info , Target ad Escort Type Cards.
  • More Submarine types and loadouts will be provided as part of the optional packs.
  • Your targets are selected from  different decks of cards such as different freighter types, fishing vessel, troop Ships, tankers, capital warships etc.
  • Your submarine will not be safe out there: there are several usual ASW escorts such as Destroyers, Frigates, ASW Planes, Corvettes and and even Q-Ships.
  • There is also special set of "named" Target and Escort cards that come with their own name such "HMS Saltash Castle", "USS England" and "IJN Shigure" and more.
  • Finally, the combat cards give you the expected unexpectedness of the life at sea.

Gameboard and other game components such Combat Cards and the Target Cards are specially prepared for  home printers for easy production - JUST PRINT AND PLAY !!!

( In case you want to spend time to mount the map etc - there is an extra chapter for how to DIY the game in very small baby steps )

Fun little 30 minute game, it is not a real sim but feels like one of the 80s 8 bit games - chunky visuals but solid game as you eat your sandwich. Many familiar names from the history of submarine warfare and some tongue-in-cheek references are here [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
