Manual
Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
This is an underwater combat simulation game where the player pilots a high-tech submarine, the Chronos, for the rebel Allied Forces. The objective is to fight against the oppressive Empire and its superior fleet of advanced underwater vessels. The player must utilize the Chronos's speed and rapid-fire torpedoes to overcome the Empire's massive resources and powerful warships.
Story
ALLIANCE
Allied Forces
The Allied Forces were established as the rebel power against the Empire, which has orchestrated a reign of terror. The forces were compelled to retreat amid the sheer amount of resources that the Empire has devoted to this war. Their final and only hope is their latest submarine.
UBS1218R Chronos
The latest vessel equipped with the newest search technology, known as "X-Sonar."
Using double reverse propellers, the Chronos is faster than the Achilles, whose most notable strength was its speed. Other improvements are also evident, such as a rapid-fire torpedo tube.
Since the cost for constructing this vessel is very high, it isn't in mass production. Yet, in the hands of a skilled pilot, a single Chronos is capable of handling multiple imperial vessels.
The design concept is based on the Rumford theory, which states that in underwater areas, the key to winning a battle is not firepower but evasive action.

UBS1201 Achilles
The Achilles is a battle submarine designed at the time of Allied Force establishment, to fight the imperial navy.
At the time of its release, it was a swift vessel boasting a top speed of 35 knots. However, its once-impressive specifications are becoming obsolete.
Like the Achilles, Allied Forces' submarines tend to be smaller than those of the Empire, and they are often single-seaters.

EMPIRE
Empire
These are the mobile weapons of the Empire, which is attempting to gain total control of the submerged world.
Underwater military technology has seen remarkable advances since the great disaster, and these weapons are far superior to what we have available today. The Empire plans to rule the world through use of its massive resources.
Daglezenair WS287-GB6
The monstrous flagship of the Empire, it was constructed during the middle stages of the war, and from the start seemed to lead the Empire to victory. Attacks using the Empire's massive resources would not have been possible without this underwater battleship.
It carries a maximum of 16 Ganeha-class vessels and numerous cannons. The large-scale torpedo launchers that appear when the bow area opens have enough firepower to demolish an underwater military base.
The underwater battleship carries an imperial admiral, is customized as a flagship, and is referred to as a "greya."

Ganeha GF35-A1
This is the most common imperial vessel. It holds two crewmen, who serve as the pilot and operator/gunner during battle.
Although its basic specifications are similar to that of an Achilles, customization is up to each crew and there are considerable differences from one vessel to another. Allied forces refer to imperial vessels of this size as being in the Ganeha class.

Toros GF35-C55
This submarine was originally developed for drilling into rock.
The rear half of a Ganeha is used. Although this ship has been versatile in setting up an underwater base and digging up artifacts and mineral resources, it is also a capable combat vessel that can charge with its drill in the front.
Once the Empire started to show interest in the Promethean Civilization, these vessels have been seen more in use by the excavation troops. It is a single-seat vessel.

Gungorower GTF400-A7
The Gungorower is a large vessel designed at the same time as the Ganeha. Due to the strong armor and firepower concentrated at the bow of the vessel, it tends to be used as the core of an assault force.
This ship is large but lacks mobility. It can become a sitting duck if the enemy positions itself

Items & Weapons
Torpedo
By holding down the button, the crosshairs change to a lock-on sight. A torpedo is launched as you release the button, and after locking on, it homes in on the target.
Lock-On Sight
Locks on if the sight captures a target for a certain period of time, displaying a mark at the center if a target within range is captured.
Lock-On Marker
This is displayed on the target that has been locked on.
Lock-On Counter
Displays the number of lock-ons (torpedoes).
Torpedo Launcher Tube Display (during lock-on)
This is displayed when the torpedo in the tube has locked onto a target.
Needle Gun
The needle gun is fired using the button, showing red marks at four corners when the target is within range, but it has shorter range and less firepower.
Missiles
Missiles are controlled in a manner similar to torpedoes.
Machine Gun
The machine gun is controlled in a manner similar to the needle gun.
DECOY
This decoy torpedo exhibits energy response similar to the Chronos, causing enemies to mistake it for the Chronos and attack it, allowing you to avoid being attacked.
SONIC TORPEDO
A sonic torpedo emits high-frequency noise upon detonation, confusing the enemy sonar operator and momentarily paralyzing enemy vessels, making it effective against larger enemies.
NUCLEAR BOMB
This self-detonating torpedo creates a huge explosion after moving straight for a certain distance or hitting an obstacle, evaporating everything around it and affecting a wide area.
Tips & Maps
Ultra-Ancient Civilization
A prehistoric civilization whose artifacts, far surpassing present scientific levels, have ignited an excavation war between the Allied Forces and the Empire.
The First Guardian
Autonomous mobile weapons, often over 100m tall, believed by many to have caused prehistoric catastrophes.
EQUIP RIGHT
Choose the optimal normal weapons, engine shields, and special weapons that are most suitable for each mission to achieve success.
GATHER ITEMS
Collect buried treasures, which are artifacts from the Ultra-Ancient Civilization, to induce the development of new and more powerful weapons.
REAR ATTACK
Firing torpedoes from behind the enemy reduces their chance of evasion compared to a frontal attack.
AMBUSH
Lock onto an enemy behind an obstacle and adjust the torpedo launch angle to guide it around the obstacle for a safe destruction.
BURSTING ATTACK
Lock on at least two torpedoes to an enemy behind a building; the first torpedo destroys the building, and subsequent shots crush the enemy.
FOCUS ATTACK
Multiple lock-ons increase a torpedo's tracking ability due to 'lock-on interference,' improving your chances against evasive enemies.
