At our Games Club last night we decided to have our first BoB game using the new London Maps that came with the Giant Kickstarter Models.
We had a Heinkel 111 flown by Ross, Molders 109-E3 flown by Glen up against a Spitfire flown by Dal, A Polish Hurricane flown by Andrew & Sandford Tuck's Hurricane flown by myself.
A few pics of the action follows:

The Bomber misses the Target but kills lots of fish in the Thames!

Finally at the cost of the Spitfire & his own aircraft Sanford Tuck brings down the German Bomber.

Sorry for only those few pics but it was some of the chaps first effort playing WW2 rules so I was kept busy sorting out rules etc.
The maps were really great for a BoB Bombing game & we learnt at our peril how deadly the number of guns on the Heinkel could be.
The best method of attack would seem to be from the front.
The Polish Hurricane & the 109 both survived the game which was called once the Bomber went down.
