Campaigns

[gavain2]

I wonder if anyone does a campaign which is part of, either a Boche or Allied 'Push/Advance' in which your individual targets within each of your 'scenarios have a point system whereby it is important to complete a mission. For instance: a bombing of somewhere which if not carried through or unsuccesful loses X points for you or gives X points to the enemy.
Or, it may be an important recon before an advance, destroying some? balloons so they can't do any observations.


Just an idea to give some context and meaning as to why we do the missions we carry out.within the greater campaign!

In the Avon campaign, we use a points system for missions for two purposes.
1. To advance the timeline, the later dates giving access to better, newer machines.
2. To allow piilots to equip themselves with the newer machines.
I have put a quick review of the system in the campaign thread, have a look and pm me if I can offer an explanation in more detail.

Hello Don,

Back in 2010 I ran a mini-campaign set in the time of the 'Kaiserschlacht' 1918 involving a strategic element where victory points earned were translated to advances on the ground.

Check out the thread here:

Cheers,

Carl.

Thanks to both of you for the info. My campaign will be playeds solo following some both sets of ifo you've given. At the moment though my game table which is 5' x 3' is taken up with a game called 'Sekigahara' which has one of the cleanest sets of clear concise rules and an absol;utely beautiful map and game play. It's a block game Briliant! 2 player alhough wwe have it as a 3 player.
So thanks chaps off now to the mess for a gin.
