We had a fantastic day at Epic Loot. Esa, AKA The Black Devil, was here from Australia. He typically plays a lot of WWII but we decided to infect him with the WWI bug. We had three great games. The first had two Caudron G.6s protected by two Spad XIIIs against four Jasta 5 Albatros D.Vs. This game was a bit of a mess as the boom cards reared their ugly little heads early and often.
The second game had three Nieuport 28s escorting the same two Cauldrons while being attacked by four Fokker D.VIIs. This was a wonderfully game. Lots of great action finishing with one Caudron eaking it's way off the board.
The last game was a true fur ball two Nieuports and a Breguet BR.14 B2. They were up against a Fokker D,VII, Fokker DR.1, an Albatros D.V, and an Albatros D.III. It was a proper mess making it a fun game.
To think this outing all started with Esa posting that he would be in Ohio and wanted to know if anyone in Ohio would be playing wings. I responded and this get together happened. I really believe this is what the Aerodrome was set up for. It is a great way to promote our international band of brothers and sisters. Thanks to Keith for making the fun day we had possible.
