Thread: wacky wings balloons

  1. #1

    Default wacky wings balloons

    Having just read an article about the use of balloons in ww1. Has anyone incorporated damage cards for flying between two balloons tethered by cables strung between them to snag enemy aircraft? Interesting

    Yes, a couple of times - it was provided for in the Balloon Busters expansion:
    "If any part of an airplane model is between two adjacent balloons while at the same altitude as the lowest of the two balloons or lower, the plane is eliminated. A plane is also destroyed if it is between the balloon and a side of the playing field while at the same altitude of the balloon or lower."

    The Balloon Busters rules are here in the files along with the other WoW rules

    There were a few instances of planes in WW2 surviving a hit on a barrage balloon cable, but I can't see a WW1 plane doing so.
