Thread: Aircraft with cannons

  1. #1

    Default Aircraft with cannons

    Do aircraft with cannons, ie. ones which use the C damage deck such as the Voisin Vca have a longer range?

    Don't think so - that would require a new range ruler.

    The only person I know using a cannon is Flash, with his SPAD XII, and he uses the normal range ruler.
    I laugh in the face of danger - then I hide until it goes away!

    Mark, if you download the Tripod rule set from Ares it has a section on the cannon on p22 ( https://www.aresgames.eu/22393 )
    In short, the range used is one ruler, it causes 1 x C damage whether at long, or, short range, ranging with an MG gives an advantage.
    Here's one of the threads discussing it relating to the SPAD XII : https://www.wingsofwar.org/forums/sh...he-37mm-cannon that includes input from Andrea, the game designer, on what he'd originally thought up for the game but did not publish; though much the same as what came with Tripods.
