Due to the popularity of the Original Bismarck Solitaire Bookgame we have created a black and white version that gives gamers more options.
The Midnight Edition of the Original Bookgame Bismarck Solitaire adds additional game plays of each mission, plus a new scenario and a new map with three missions for the Battle of Denmark Strait.
Command the pride of the German Navy in Bismarck Solitaire, an Original Bookgame by Worthington Publishing. Lead the German ships Bismarck, Prinz Eugen, and U-boat support as they take on the determined Royal Navy with one goal, Sink the Bismarck!
You have 11 missions of varying objectives and difficultly, plus a training cruise. Each mission gives you 4-6 tries to best the Royal Navy. Some missions require you to find convoys, others expect you to sink a few British warships, while some just hope your ships can survive the sortie.
The only thing you must provide is 2 dice, a pen, and a sense of adventure.
