SAs

Code Intercepts - At the end of the second player's Sea Movement step, you may place this unit in an adjacent sector that contains an enemy Auxiliary.
Lay Smoke Screen- Instead of attacking during your Surface Attack step, this unit can make a local smoke screen. A sector containing a smoke screen blocks line of sight. A unit in a smoke screen has concealment. Remove the smoke screen at the end of the next turn.
Defective Torpedoes 1 - Whenever this unit would make a Torpedo attack, roll a die. On a 1, the attack automatically misses instead.

On 6 November 1941, USS Somers and USS Omaha confiscated the German freighter Odenwald because she was sailing disguised as the neutral American merchantman Willmoto. The crews of both US ships eventually received the last prize money ever awarded by the US Navy. Somers participated in the interception of two more blockade runners in the Atlantic during the war. While supporting the invasion of Southern France before dawn, Somers’ radar detected the approach of the German corvette UJ6081 and the sloop SG21. Both ships were sunk by Somers’ accurate gunfire at the Battle off Port Cros.
