Devil Boats: PT Boats in the Solomons models 12 individual PT boat crewmen that may be injured, killed, or even come down with malaria. But if they do survive long enough, their skills and effectiveness will improve. The game also models individual PT boat equipment and components, such as radio, radar, engines, guns, bilge pumps, etc. that may be damaged or destroyed. Also modeled is PT squadron management, allowing you to conduct PT boat assignments and repairs.
Devil Boats is a dice and chart-driven solitaire, tactical-level wargame that places you in command of a squadron of 4 US Navy PT boats, going on nightly missions against the Japanese forces in the Solomon Islands during the summer months of 1943. Your primary goal is to sink as many IJN barges as possible in an attempt to prevent them from transporting troops and supplies to the surrounding islands.
Also included are special missions, such as picking up downed Allied airmen, dropping off supplies to coastwatchers, or even shelling enemy supply dumps. But beware - hidden enemy machine gun nests and shore guns may await as your boats approach the shoreline. Other mission hazards included enemy air patrols, IJN destroyer encounters, bad weather, reef collisions, and a multitude of random events.
Contents:
1 Strategic Map (8.5" x 11")
2 Countersheets
2 Mission Boards
1 Crew Placement Board
8 Player Aid Sheets and Logs
1 Rules & Tables Booklet
2 Six-sided Dice

Fun Solitaire Game
This is a lot of fun in the same vein as The Hunters and Nightfighter. The book is laid out a little densely and using a unified modifier table for several sections would streamline the gameplay a bit. It doesn't take long to memorize the important parts though.
