AAR: Somewhere over the Russian steppes
Last night Mike was supposed to bring his late war planes and three mats. He couldn't make it, so I had to quickly scrap together something with what I threw in the truck for three players:
Two German Fiats just finished a photo recon mission and are enjoying the view of the countryside before turning home.
A pair of enterprising Yak pilots see an opportunity...
A mixed of flight of Italians looking for their wayward allies.
Engagement begins.
Time to close the canopies (at least those of us that have them).
Italians may be too far to make a difference.
Germans turn tail and run (jog?)
Italians still out of the fight...
Yaks gaining
Italians just might make it in time.
Germans turn into the fight. Too bad they don't speak Italian.
(And yes, we further inhibited the game by not letting the Germans and Italians share plans!)
Italians lining up their shots on the tailing Soviet.
...and the meatball begins.
Attachment 190600
Splash one Fiat (and his roll of film).
The last German wishing he had taken Italian in school.
Safe? Among Friends?
"Make way meine freunden!"
Soviets turning on the hunters.
Just about a fair fight.
While the big boys are in a scrap, the lone German finds his escape.
Fiat pilot mistranslated "scappa" for "komm her"
Luckily the Italians vanquished the Yaks, allowing the lone German Fiat to limp home.
A fun game for a last minute scenario.
