Synopsis

The Second World War in the Mediterranean Sea was mostly fought between the Royal Italian Navy (Regia Marina), supported by other Axis naval and air forces, those of Nazi Germany and Vichy France, and the British Royal Navy, supported by other allied naval forces, such as those of Australia, the Netherlands, Poland and Greece. Each side had three overall objectives in this campaign: the first was to attack the supply lines of the other side; the second was to keep open the supply lines to their own armies in North Africa; and the third was to destroy the ability of the opposing navy to wage war at sea. In this book I will dedicate myself more to the tactical and technical decision-making levels, simulating the execution of patrols that will be considered victorious if they escape the anti-submarine war and carry out the assigned missions. As for the missions, I will base myself on examples taken from situations experienced by Italian submarine crews during the Second World War. And in developing this simulation I will use the U-Boot board game from Galápagos Games.
