Yesterday saw the third in our series of Zeppelin raids on poor old Ashford
This time there were five players - Flash/Dave flying his AFB-1; Chequers/Mark, Paul & John/Capt. Hurst flying Brisfits; and yours truly flying a DH4. As usual, anyone shot down (and believe me, we were shot down a lot) re-joined the action at the start of the next turn.
The action lasted into the 11th turn, and a total of three DH4's, eight Brisfits and two AFB-1s fell from the sky by that time. However, the Zeppelin was stopped short of Ashford by points damage, and had also lost six crew and had six gas cells completely destroyed, another on fire, and a further four damaged to some degree (house rule used here is that the two mechanics can try and patch gas cells / put out fires whilst they still have some points left, but once they have reach zero they are kaput).
It was a very enjoyable game (as always) and Clipper's magnificent Zeppelin took centre stage again.
AAR below as soon as I can type it up
