Description:
A heavily reinforced variant of the U-69 “Tadeus”, this wartime refit is designed to face off against otherwise insurmountable foes. In addition to its double-layered shell, two frontal railguns, four dual coilgun turrets, five discharge coils and a depth charge tube serve to annihilate anything in the sub’s path. However, cargo space had to be sacrificed to fit additional ammunition storage. If all-out war is inevitable, take no chances – take command of the Wartime “Tadeus”!

Initial testing of the U-Boat “Tadeus” prototype exceeded all expectations. Against one swarm after another Tadeus sallied out, and time and again Tadeus prevailed. Having added additional ballast and long-range communication arrays, the chief engineers quickly deemed the project as a resounding success. Earth’s expertise and Europa’s ingenuity turned out to complement each other, after all.

The project’s marketing department soon took over and promoted the finished design towards aspiring submariners in order to recuperate from near-total bankruptcy fill a promising market niche and, more than anything else, save lives. It would not be long until dozens of crews chose U-69 as their vessel of choice, prompting the shift from small-scale experimentation into large-scale enterprise. Suspicions from Coalition Police about the dubious sudden increase in subyard manufacturing were promptly snuffed out by a series of covert operations against security bureaus quickly resolved, leading high-ranking Coalition personnel to disappear along with any damning evidence become dead certain about the public benefit of the ]Tadeus campaign.

There was one incident that cast a shadow over the project, however. Shortly after initial testing, prototype Tadeus suffered catastrophic damage, seemingly resulting from a collision with a cliff face following engine failure. One sole survivor narrowly made it back, salvaging the submarine as well as his own life. In secret, Security Officer Ishmael Davidoff revealed the damage to originate from a harrowing encounter with a leviathan of the depths. As a last-ditch attempt, he fired a nuclear shell at close range, dooming beast and crew alike.

Most folk would have discarded such stories as lies and deception, eager to punish a traitor to his fellow seamen then and there. Yet the project administrators held off on such measures. Davidoff was still of use to them as one way or another, he confirmed their greatest fear: that the Tadeus was, in fact, not unsinkable.

Given enough time, they would see to that…
