Played at Guns Of August 2014
A quick in and out raid by B-29`s attempting to knock out a factory.
Forces:
USAAF Three B-29`s altitude 12.
IJAAF one KI-61, two KI-100 , two KI-84 and one KI-46 III.
Set up: The Bombers started two firing stick from the target. The fighters over their own territory of the players choosing.
Players i moved the bombers and flew the Tony and Dinah. BobP flew the two Ki-100`s and David the two Frank.
Special Rules. Ramming attacks were the last option of late war Japan. A fighter moving at High Speed in a collision would inflict and draw a D damage chip.
The game started slow and quickly heated up with a head on pass by one of Bob` KI-100. His target was the lead B-29 which blew up. The celebration was unfortunately short. The defensive fire and a collision ended his flying career. After all the firing was over one lone B-29 remained in the air. With two dead engines and on fir and smoking they called it a day and headed home.
In all a Japanese Pyrrhic victory!
This was a fun game!
