What is Silent Service
Silent Service is a tactical-level, narrative-style solitaire wargame using a tables-based game engine simulating the US Navy submarine war against Japanese shipping in the Pacific during World War II.
As the captain of a Salmon or Gato class submarine based in Fremantle, Australia during 1942-1945, your ultimate goal is to locate and sink as many enemy Japanese ships as possible, while at the same time bringing your sub and crew safely back to base after each patrol. It won’t be easy due to persistent enemy aircraft and escorts continuously hunting your sub, but the American people are depending on you. Don’t let them down!
Two D10, one D12, and one D20 dice are required to play.
5 minute game setup and breakdown times.
