Ares Games

Wings of Glory gaming day...or how I managed to get shot down not once, but twice by a 9 year old.

Got together with my buddy Dave and his 2 sons on Saturday for some Wings of Glory fun. In our first match we flew 2 Dr I's vs. 2 Spad XIII's, and in the second match we flew a pair of Albatross DVa's vs. a Sopwith Camel and an SE5a. Amazingly, despite our year's of gaming experience, we were shot down by a 9 and 5 year old in both games.
  1. #039...and then me.
  2. #038 sadly, the Se5a would outmaneuver us, and first shoot down Dave.....
  3. #037 after shooting down the Sopwith Camel, we begin maneuvering our badly shot up Albatross's to take out the Se5a.
