    You are probably waiting for the first infromations about the Prague Campaign on centenary of the last flight of Red Baron.
    The original idea is follow the path of two giants of the Air - MvR and James McCudden throught the years of the Great War.

    Daniel,

    Presumably your real name and not a made-up one for the purposes of the campaign?

    Does the colour scheme have to be authentic?

    We want to have a special personalised card for each player. But If you have a strong Alter Ego (like Kyte, for example), it should be OK.

    I do not think it must be. It is up to you - we want to have the final battle interesting. From my perspective: Andrzej's yellow-blue Dr.I would be fine, pink SE.5a with violet stars probably not. But we trust our players

    Enlist Mario for the Luftstreitkräfte please.

    I have a Fokker Dr.I repaint for him.

    Can I use the Original Manfred von Richthofen Fokker Dr.I for the champaign?

    Not shure about Markus at the moment.

    Dan I do not have any Aeres REPAiNTS so the question is "must it be a repaint or can I bring an unaltered Aeres plane"?

    Chalicek is for Entente not German side.
    Please add my family: Honza (Druid) for entente and Vojta (my son) for German.
    Radouch and Jirka will answer in few days.

    For Reg:
    any unofficial airplane is welcomed.

    It is limited to Camel, Se5, Fokker Dr.I and S-S D.III.
    But the origin of the model is not limited.
    Not only Ares repaints, but also Valom, Shapeways, Skytrex and other manufacturers are in play.

    OK you had better count me out then. Although I would have thought that any aircraft in service before MVR's death would have been acceptable otherwise I would have used my Valom D VII. It's a long way to come not to get a game!

    Camel, Se5 and Fokker Dr.I are understandable choices, but a S-S D.III is surprising !
    Would not a Albatros D.Va be more reasonable ?

    Reg, have a repaint is an option, not creterium. If you won't it, you just join on of sides randomly. That's all. You even do not need any mini

    Reg, I can lend you a repainted Camel or DR.1 if you want.

    Dan, I'm very willing to join the campaign.
    Also, I'll GM one WW2 mission. Is it compatible? Probably I'm not the only one with this in mind.

    Asja will play campaign, too. She'll bring Dr.I

    P.S. You put me in trouble... I would like to fly for CP, but I can fly my favourite SE.5a if I choose Allies...

    One is OK and mastering of another mission is a perfect reason why miss a game. Welcome!

    You cheese-eating surrender monkeys have spent the last two centuries losing to the Germans, so presumably you think you will be on the winning side for once?

    And I have one more question:
    When player will know which airplane he will use during the campaign (except those who bring re-painted one)? It could help deciding which skill tree to choose.

    Nemanja, this is quite new perspective for me. Give me few days to think about it. I'll tell you on Friday after discussion with Kubajs. Could be?
