Date of mission: 15th June 1918
Location:Lille, part of France under German occupation
Story: After a succesfull secret mission of Mr. Henri Defense of Belgian Army (Indiana Jones), French intelligence needs pick up the spy from the enemy territory. They send a Breguet with an escort to this dangerous mission.
Central Powers Forces: 2x Siemens-Schuckert D.III

Central Powers victory conditions: destroy Breguet with or without a spy
Entente victory conditions: pick up the spy and escape with him
Special rules: Landing and take off rules. Breguet can not shoot from the rear gun until the spy is onboard.
Result: Central Powers won - they destroys Breguet just few moves after picking up the spy.
Balance: 60 %. The mission was disrupted by poor setup (see Note).
Note: It is necessary to setup the game in way that Breguet will be positioned in a multiple of 60° to the airfield (9x27 cm). In the other case, the Breguet would collide during the landing everytime.
Setup of the game - the Breguet is not in a multiple of 60° to the airfield (bad setup).
First attack to an enemy fighter - set the fire! The other fighter is preparing a good attack position.
And the next attack: SPAD (mine ) on the tail of Siemens - 2x A damage cards.
SPAD covers Breguet's tail...
...and Siemens strikes back! Ouch...
After Immelman Manuevre the hunt begin. Breguet is landing...
And crash! (2+3+4 damage) Both fighters in attack possition.
The Breguet is preparing to take of and the first fighter attack. The second one is attacked by SPAD and...
...and it is shot down in the next turn!
Breguet is taking off...
...turn to the left and changes bullets with the enemy fighter...
...and it is shot down. Mission failed. Mr. Defense must cross the no-man's land alone.
