Sensuikan: Japanese Fleet Submarines in WW2
Follow orders as the commander of a Japanese fleet submarine during the Pacific War, from 1941 through 1945. Choose from 17 submarine classes and undertake missions assigned by Combined Fleet, patrolling through randomly generated events and encounters. Success depends on completing operations, supporting major military events, and sometimes sinking enemy shipping, while making it back to port. As the war progresses, survival becomes more difficult. The commander gains rank and awards, and the crew develops new skills through continued service. Detailed submarine classes, combat procedures, and major event markers track both the technical and human aspects of a full wartime patrol career.
