What is Dive! Dive! Dive!: German U-boat Operations in the Atlantic

Dive! Dive! Dive! is a co-operative Tactical level board-wargame for 1 to 4 players. Each player is a key officer on a World War II German U-Boot with an associated special action.

At the beginning of each turn, the commander decides what action the U-Boot will attempt for that turn. This could be Transit, Patrol, or if ships have been discovered, Attack. Then 4 cards are drawn (one at a time) and placed along operations track at the top of the Plot Board. The position chosen for each of these cards is important. The Commander then rolls two die and refers to the card in the space that number represents. If the card does not relate to the current action state of the U-Boot nothing happens and play proceeds to the next turn and action state. However Yellow defend cards are always acted upon. So try to place them on the low percentage numbers.

If the card mentions the current action state, it's instructions are followed.

There are four missions of differing difficulty to try. How many can you complete without loosing a crew member, being sunk or running out of fuel.
