A couple months ago someone asked what our game mat looked like. This is about the best photo I could get of it. The landscape is too nice looking to be anywhere near the front.
AAR #1: Late war dogfight. Todd, Will, Mike and I started a late war dogfight with Snipes vs Fokker D Vii. Todd provided the planes since he had consistent squadron markings for both planes. Mike and I flew the Fokkers and Todd and Will had the Snipes. [A Snipe Hunt, perhaps.]
Ben, a late arrival joined the action with a Fokker D.VII. When playing the game I sometimes forget to take action shots. Here I become the first casualty of the game. I had made a deck of critical hit cards from the files. The shining card on the left of the second row, the +1s, reads, "A bullet clips your skull, knocking you unconscious. You make a slow spiral to a crash landing."
The Snipes make a nice formation bank to the left. Todd was flying the 'T' airplane, while Will had the 'F' which he referred to as the Fire Damage plane. Mike and Ben are heading.
Here Mike is showing off the new Flame markers I had made from pipe cleaners. It may not look like much of a flame, but they are colorful.
