    An interesting little scrap there Richard. Just goes to show how good your AI rules are with a bit of good luck thrown in.
    Speaking of which, i noticed some interest in one of the posts for today the the BSG players are interested in a set of AI rules!

    Good one Richard!
    Just shows how effective the AI charts are.
    I get to experience that in all the Over the Trenches campaign games.

    Pic 8, wherein "My Pfaltz passed the Triplane with neither pilot getting a bead on the other.", I originally read, "My Pfalz passed *through* the triplane..."

    And in fact, that is what almost happened.

    Good on ya' for introducing a new player to the game.

    A swirling dogfight there!

    I was surprised how much peg-to-peg fire cuts the shooting right back!
    I'll have to give it a try myself some time.
    I laugh in the face of danger - then I hide until it goes away!

    I found the game far more fun using peg-peg measurement, I really hope you find the same!

    I've played peg-to-peg a couple of times; it does make things tighter, but doesn't really change the game that much.
    Makes the Giants easier to run.

    Dave (Flash) uses peg-to-peg in our Over the Trenches campaign.
    Now that I have more games under my belt I might have to try that as well.
    Maybe my games wouldn't be so deadly
