    I never tried to fit campaign in such time-table based on usual Con schedule, but tried to propose new schedule for this year's Con, completely campaign oriented one. Any non-campaign player may play scenario as off-participant etc. I guess it's worth of considering.

    Jelena and I just voted. We have only one strict Yes and one strict No, but all other orange votes should be treated as Yes (but having in mind our line of work is a bit unpredictable).

    For now, seems that April 22 - 24 is acceptable for most of the voters.

    For this moment yes, but you are forgetting the most important voter - Láďa, the store owner. And I declared that the form will be open until 15.10.2015.

    We had no B17 Mission this year.

    Avro Lancasters were on duty, but no Fortresses.

    If someone plans to design a big WGS late war bomber intercept mission, I can support this with 1x B17F and 2x B17G.

    Maybe we have some WGS series 6 Kurfürst Messerschmitts for such a mission next year.

    Quite probably.

    I took part in a big hunt of two B-17 with a pack of Fw.190D and it has been both fun and effective, anyway.

    I also repainted a P-38 with the colors of Regia Aeronautica for that purpose. Colonnello Angelo Tondi shot down two B-17s on it, in late August/early September 1943.

    I informed Markus about the voting, but I think he will check the date first as soon as we found a weekend.

    Same goes for Mario, so don't expect or wait for votes from them.

    Sorry - both aren't that independent boardgamers.

    Several hours left till the end of voting. If you know someone who is thinking about participation, please, tell him about this last chance

    Láďa told me that every weekend from the poll is too far for him and he will not vote now (in the worst case he will stop planning later and we will have to seek a new place - that is OK, he is the store owner)

    Today we met with Kubajs and we have some new ideas about campaign or several other things. Let us surprise you later, after the end of voting

    Perhaps you could get the shop to install a Budvar tap to refresh players during the games...

    I'm envious that I can't come and celebrate/enjoy/play with you all - I look forward to the reports form '16...

    Voting is over. We have three possible dates. Now, we must discuss what to do.
    I want to know, especially from Sven, Paul, Honza and Rafal, if there is a possibility to join us despite the red field in the poll.

    The extending of voting poll with more weekends is not a solution - the group is just too big to finish with one optimal date for all participants.

    OK, what do you think about it?

    I can give a 100% guarantee for the April date.


    For Fr 13.05. – So 15.05. I can't give a guarantee that I'll find a replacement officer.
    For Fr 20.05. – So 22.05. I might get stress with the family.


    Do we have a plan B if Lada's shop isn't available?

    I opened the voting for some time - Richard (itchy) told me he is considering participation, so I want to give him a chance. If anybody missed the voting, there is a new chance (without clear end).

    Three things from a one-time visitor:
    1) Horray for democracy! Voting is a great thing.
    2) It would be great to have everyone attending.
    3) In any case, it would be a pity not to have some of the real souls of the event.

    I promised an idea and here it is:

    We are discussing here a campaign system for Prague Con very often. I like the idea, but I see some difficulties in having campaing for both games (WGF and WGS). So why not play campaign only for WGF? The table with WGS can stay with free mode, people can flow from one to another and only for WGF there will be a career system in KotA way. We will have 4 normal +1 big missions (2x1916; 2x1617 and 1x1918) and play as we want. Who do not like it, can just change the table for WGS or play without without caring about career points. What do you think?

    Kubajs, did I forget something?

    I AM ALL FOR THE WGF KOTA CAMPAIGN IDEA. PLAYING A KOTA CAMPAIGN IN SUCH AN INTERNATIONAL GROUP SHALL BE A BLAST.
    Sorry for shouting.

    Sounds like a Campaign Saturday.

    A few ideas:

    • You'll need a plan if the campaign volunteers would fill two tables (remember the run on Easy Zeppelin)
    • Mission should be designed to 6 -10 players max.
    • We need a stock of planes.
    • If it's a KotA campaign the result of mission 1 should influence mission 2 (lost the mission - you're the defender for example)
    • Each mission should have a limited choice and number of plane types to aviod for example that all Germans start with a Fokker D.VII (something like max. 2 Fokker D.VII & min. 1 Fokker Dr.I)
    • etc...



    At all - interesting idea.

    Combine this with your great assesment system from the last Con and we'll have a lot of fun.

    I will try to answer:

    1. May be you are true. Hope we can work with it - GM is an XO for his mission, he will be always right. The system can not cover every eventuality, we must talk about special missions like Easy Zeppelin.
    2. I don't know how many players join the Con in this moment. That will be important for mission options. I can imagine missions for 8-14 players. We will see.
    3. I think my + Kubajs's + Bumblebee's + Láďa's + Andrzej's collections will be enough. By the way, there is much easier parking near new Con place.
    4. There is no special need to play KotA missions, because in that moment we can't create our own missions (for me, GM mission parade is an important part of Con). So we plan to use KotA point and ace system, but not missions.. Every GM will create a mission due Con task.
    5. Number of planes and types is on GM. It must accord only to war year, rest is on him.
    6. Etc.

    Is it clearer? Just ask, I am here
