Thread: MiG Alley unboxing

    Default MiG Alley unboxing

    Yesterday I got my preordered MiG Alley from Warlord Games. Priced at exactly 20 GBP shipping included (!) there was a deal I could not pass by.

    Below you can judge the box contents, which, to my mind, is amazing. Of course, it is not a standalone game, you need to have a starter set or - at least - the rulebook.

    I pre-ordered a set as well, and I expect it to arrive within a week.

    Roughly 1/200 minis for the Blood Red Skies rules. No squadron specific details.

    Looking at the decal sheet it looks like the 39th FIS. Check out MISCMINI for decals that may have more detail.

    I tried out my first play of the MiG Alley expansion....
    Although no fighter were shot down, the North Koreans won, because they dished out three boom chits to the US forces, while receiving two chits.
    I find that due to the higher speeds and the Jet card, the jets do have a different feel. There's more of a focus on getting your fighters to work together as a pair.
    Because jets can gain advantage more easily, it's important to use one fighter to force an enemy into disadvantage, then hit that fighter with your wingman.
