Silent War

Long and detailed solitaire simulation of the US submarine war against Imperial Japan during the Second World War. Players command submarines from Pearl Harbor and Brisbane across the Pacific, conducting patrols, searching for targets, and attacking Japanese naval and merchant shipping. Scenarios cover individual stages of the war, the full campaign, or famous patrols, with rules for torpedo improvements, repairs, readiness, wolfpacks, combat events, and Japanese doctrine.
