All Western Canadian and Northwestern American Wings of Glory pilots!

Whether I attend or not, something of mine will appear.

10th Anniversary Convention!

In honour of that event, I have done up this:



This is the first draft, pending an attendee's list confirmation. I should also put something on this noting the 10th Anniversary, too.

Anyone in the Greater Vancouver area should consider attending, for other games as well as Wings of Glory. Sails may make another appearance, too.

I know I have to go to Missouri in November, so not sure yet if I will be able to go.

Fingers crossed ...

Well, my son has never tried the game as yet. But he is over here in GB soon for a week or more and intends giving it a try. Since he lives and works in Vancouver, who knows, I may be able to persuade him to look in

So...
One of the pilots in Vancouver is putting together a scenario for WWI. War of the Worlds tripods versus canvas kites.

For those playing WGS 1/144, this might be of interest:

I suggested that if using "Heat Rays" against canvas and wood planes, the "D" Damage deck should be used. That should be about right for the type of weapon, and the type of target?

Thoughts?

Shipped off the Duel Packs from Ares Games that I didn't use at MosaiCon.

Added the following to the box:





One each of the Ace and Bullseye cards per game, and a bunch of participation cards. Backings as applicable for the version to be played.

I will be there in spirit. Hope the games are a blast.

And another one I have to miss ...
Nice job, Mike.
