Fun game. Two British Sopwith 1 1/2 Strutters on bombing mission with French Nieuport 17 escort. On the defense was two Fokker D.II and two Halberstadt D.III. The Strutters were close, but missed their targets. Two German Pilots shot down and all the British return home. 5 different pilots got wounded. BLOODY! Great game!
"Things that go boom" indeed. Mostly what went boom were the pilots heads.
Boots on the Ground!

Fun game balloon busting! It didn't stand a chance!!!
Great news, Peter and Bob did not get any booms! Heck, they both survived the mission!!!!
No booms for Bob or I, that was a nice surprise. It's also nice when you have rockets and they both hit! Only one downed plane as Thomas was unlucky and received 2 booms. Several planes had to fly their pants off to survive so there was some great maneuvering on display.

Turn 6.2: a tragic case of whiplash
Again, sorry I had to miss the game at the last minute.
Our stove crapped out on us when the mammal I married was trying to cook supper-I did manage to get two of the burners back in operation, but it looks like we need to replace the thing, it's on its last legs. See people in a couple of weeks.

Sorry to hear about your bad luck Zen. We had either no shooting going on, or a bunch of shooting going on! A lot of planes shot up!!!!! Only two went down though!
The Bridge!

Great game! I hope everyone had fun!
It was a lot of fun. Thanks for providing this weeks mission Dan. I can't wait till next week's game brings!
It was a fun night. Bomber hitting it's target even if partially, fires, booms, collisions and jams. Mike finally got some of what he has wanted with 3 KIAs for the campaign!
It's been a while since we had a pilot not survive.
We've been living on the edge for several weeks now. Lots of pilots down and until this week almost no one was killed.
The dangers of using a blue die! Next time I will choose a more happy color!
Ouch! I'm glad I was on the bench this week.
Late posting but last weeks game was a good one. I was able to use my ACE skill to down the bomber after he caused damage to the bridge. Then my being on fire didn't help me in the end. Down in flames but had a good time.
Enemies to the Left, Enemies to the Right!
Look to the left or right there are enemy planes, will the lone French plane thread the needle with the British help, or will the Germans shoot them down?

Well lasted 4 turns last night. Peter was on fire but I decidec to go after the planes going after the Caudron. Got myself in a good position, right between two Germans. I did have a short shot on Patric. Great shooting 0 hits and jamed my guns. Then took hits and rudder jam. Then Mike took up the slack and shot me down. At least Peter and I didn't get a BOOM card like usual. Good game and fun.
Thanks again Mike.
Yes Bob, finally a game where we didn't attract the Booms! I did get set on fire first time I was shot at (as well as Chris) but was happy not to have it a Boom. That threw the game immediately to the Entente as half the Germans had to overdive to put out the fires. C'est la vie. Now my shooting luck is sorely lacking. Last night 4 shots and 3 were zeros. Last week I had 8 shots and 6 zeros. Still always fun flying on Thursday nights, thanks Mike.
Nope, the boom went to me, for a change.
Early on, I decided Peter/Teaticket was as much out of the fight as we needed him to be, so I decided to turn an support Bob & the bombers. I just didn't get there in time.
But it was another fun game, even if I did collect both a collision and a boom.
Thanks once again, Mike.
Thanks, Mike! It was great to be back in action and a fun scenario that went sideways
When you said our Fokkers were upgraded I should have hoped for fire extinguishers!
BOLO
Not everything is as it seems!

BOLO all right! Nothing like a surprise A gun to put some holes in your plane! Sad, poor Von Zoom was an Ace for 5 seconds, then kissed the dirt!

RIP von Zoom!
I am thinking perhaps Keinknall
< No Bang>
lol I'm just the bookkeeper. You have to beg Mike for a new pilot.
I'm looking for the help wanted signs......
Was away so just want to say great game last week. Not just saying that because of the outcome but it was fun.
I think I found a new pilot suit for my airmen!
FYI.... This weeks game is WWII Pacific
