G40 U-Boats & Wolf Pack
-
This rule is part of the Axis & Allies Global 1940 2E, House Rules Expansion.
Compared to Allied Nations, Germany had an increased poduction of U-Boats throughout the War.
The U-Boat & Wolf Pack rule reflects the advantages in German production as well as tactics.

@the-captain Germany produced over 1,000 uboats, UK had the second most subs at less than 400…. 😅😅

@the-chaplain also, this is well thought out and I like the pdf… gotta try this next game!

Hi Chaplain,
Thanks for your comment:+1:
The Battle of The Atlantic gets a new dimension, when Germany produces U-boats in increased numbers - and use the Wolf Pack tactic.
In this way, Germany can actually push their Western Line of Defense into the Atlantic Ocean - and at the same time pose a threat to Allied shipping and Convoys. This is definitely an option that the German player should consider during strategic planning.
Looking forward to hear about your game:relaxed:

@the-captain yea the wolfpacks are pretty effective in my limited experience with them. If you decide to send the Bismark to Scapa Flow after the Hood and if given the option, retreat and the Hood goes to Iceland, a wolfpack has a good chance to sink it without loss.
You’ll still be a wolfpack for defense if the Americans are activated and try and come after you as well.
Definitely changes it up. I like em. Adding some more convoy zones would be something you guys might consider as well. just a thought : )
