Right after the first game, we proceeded to a second one. Same teams, same players, same planes & same starting positions.

As Bruno suspected the allies would try to team up against one of us at the start of the game, we agreed that he would fly to my side and we would team up against the best target of the moment.

While Bruno was aproaching, I engaged my old opponent - André, head-on, as always.

It was the old dril, a head-on firing pass, followed by a burst from my rear gunner.

After some maneuvering, Shamou finally entered the fight with his Hurricane.

That`s Shamou having the attention of my forward guns. At this point I thought the fight was going well, very well indeed. André couldn`t be as lucky as he was the previous game, so his plane should be badly damaged, and Shamou`s should be damaged, too.

While Bruno was maneuvering, Shamou and André teamed up against me, the cowards ! We all exchanged a lot of lead.

And that was the end of the story for me. Of 8 chits I took, only 1 was a "0".

After a lot of comemoration, when they asked how scratched the paint of my plane was, the game resumed with Bruno going after André as Shamou maneuvered far away.

After yet another Immelmann turn (we are really addicted of that maneuver), Bruno send some more lead on André.

André turned and went after Bruno for another head-on pass, while Shamou flew aparently without a purpose.

After the head-on pass, Bruno took another Immelman turn and went after André, firing at long range.

And that was it for André. Note the number of "0" tokens andré got !!! Next time I want him flying on my side.

After the end of this fight I was called to talk to some guys, but André, the new guy (on the back left), stayed at the table to host a game with another 3 interested players.

:clap: A very exciting game Carlos, and well explained in both pictures and words. A bit of a cliff hanger really with the advantage swinging to and fro for most of the game.:eek:
I think justice was done in the end.:thumbsup: Anyone who can't get into the game to trade lead is letting his partner down and deserves to lose.:smack:
