NUTS! Operation Underworld is a campaign book that explores the hidden war fought far from the front lines—along the docks, warehouses, and waterfronts that kept the Allied war effort alive.
While armies clashed overseas, Naval Intelligence officers, Shore Patrols, detectives, dockworkers, and informants fought a quieter battle against espionage, sabotage, organized crime, and enemy infiltration at home.
Set in a World War II port city, this campaign places players in charge of investigating suspicious activity, managing port security, and stopping threats before they explode into disaster. Violence is dangerous, information is incomplete, and every decision carries consequences that ripple across the campaign.
This 62-page book includes:
Background on WWII port security, Naval Intelligence, and the waterfront war
Campaign rules for Investigations, Patrols, Arrests, and Raids
The Active Threat system: Axis espionage vs. Organized Crime
Port Security and Threat mechanics that evolve with player actions
Special rules for non-lethal force, informants, and civilian interaction
Warehouse districts, docks, ships, and urban terrain guidance
Sample missions and a full introductory Case
The war you never saw is now on your table.
