Things might have been different, had I been able to put my armorer in front of the firing squad.
For some reason, that keeps not working...

Hello everyone.
I will be hosting another game on Thursday at 7 pm est. Please let me know if you want to join the flying. I will also be streaming to YouTube if you just want to watch. I will post the link around 7 here.

Finish the game tonight. First I have to thank the guys for their understanding with me for all the trouble I had tonight. I struggled throughout the whole game but managed to still get my plane up, flying and getting in some shots. Again a great game with new graphics. Again a big THANKS to all tonight.
Tonight's battle was a flight of older German aircraft heading back to the depot and get jumped by a flight of SPAD XIIIs.
Pilots records are as follows:
Entente Eagles
Bob Returned to base with 13 damage/14 damage cards
Ray Returned to base 11/7 1 kill
John 6/7 1 kill
Chris returned to base 8/8
Kaiser's Picklehaubs
Dan returned to base unscathed!! 0/0
Sam returned to base 8/3
Peter shot down with double fire 5/4
re-spawn, returned to base 4/4
Mike shot down 19/9 engine damage
re-spawn, trapped by Entente- presumably shot down 13/4 engine damage
The damage cards were not kind to the Kaiser's boys tonight. Especially Mike!

Great game Mike and Peter! Everything went smoothly, and thanks for initiating me. Hilarious bunch of guys, had a fun time Hope to be there to put some holes in that zeppelin next time!
Wonderful game! Mike, thanks yet again for setting all this up. Thanks everyone for a fun and well played game!
Problem fixed from last night so looking forward to next weeks game. All will be good then.
It was another outstanding evening of flying, fun and fubar! Mike thank you again for all you do and Pete for a smooth operation on the damage decks. Bob, glad you worked through the tech issues, as we said glad you stayed with it last night sir. I am very much looking forward to the Zeppelin scenario next Thu night.

Another great game, and thanks again to Mike for hosting.
I know this is really early for me to put out but......

A Zeppelin has just bombed the nearby industrial complex. You scramble to a plane, not even sure if it is yours, chase down the Menace and exact some revenge before it gets away!

I'm working late tonight but I'll have the stream up for the game. Thanks for hosting!
*THAT* was a lot of fun. Great set-up and scenario, Mike.
Well that was FUN!
Big round of thanks to Mike and Peter for all the work they put into the game. That Zeppelin was one tough hombre! You've got a good scenario that feels pretty balanced. It would make a solid convention game.
Ray
Great game and good friends. As Ray said many thanks to Mike and Peter for the work to let us all have a good time.
Thanks to everyone! Great game and lots of fun. I really enjoyed it!
Thanks Mike for another enjoyable evening at your table and everyone for joining in to take down the beast!
Such a good time, and fun scenario!
The avg life of a pilot at the front was about 3 weeks? So I expect next week my luck will run out.
That was a huge amount of fun. It has to be my favorite scenario to play/host. Every time I play it's a different result. It would not have been possible without Peter's help with dealing damage and taking care of all of the special rules I have for the Zeppelin. He kept me in the dark until the very end. Totally awesome! Zen, Bob, John, Chris, Ray, and Dan were awesome and we had a blast! I can't wait until next Thursday night and the fur all that we are going to have!
Thanks again
The final shot was by 6 planes giving 7 cards of damage to the Zeppelin. I shot a '0' so didn't help and was gifted with a fire in return that ended up downing me. I don't remember who but one other pilot, #5 in the line of shooting, also missed. 4 pilots actually got hits but all 5 shared in taking down the Zep. Sort of like a firing squad as we don't know who else had the blank so everyone that shot gets credit....except yours truly.
Our pilots did quite well in avoiding slamming into the Zep with I think only 1 collision. Not a good thing as the Zep ignores you but you collect the 'C' damage card.
It was a blast beginning to end, thank you again Mike for all you do and Pete for keeping us all in line managing damage. Looking forward to next week as always.
Hello everyone!
A couple of things for this week's games. Yes more than one!! The plan is a series of 3 quick 1 hour games in a tournament style of scoring. The games will be played on one game mat so that everyone will get to start shooting at the very beginning of the game. Points will be scored by player and by team. I am excited to try this format of play as a change of pace. I have 2 spaces open for anyone who wants to play that has not had a chance to try! Pm me so I can send you the information.
Due to the speed of play this week I would like to start at 630pm est so that I have time to tally scores and set up in-between games.
Best of luck
Mike
Sounds like this should be a good time. Looking forward to this new foramt.
Hm, interesting. We'll have to cut the banter, as well, that often eats up a lot of our time.
Sounds good, Mike, see ya then!
Instant furball, death match, sounds like fun and I bet the boom graphic will be used a lot.
