Thread: Watch your back rules

    Default Watch your back rules

    Hi all,

    I have just received my new boxed version of WOW Watch your back which unfortunately has come with the rules in French. (See image below). Now I am passable at pigeon French from my O levels but was wondering if there is anywhere/anyone who has English rules for WYB to save me a lot of time Google translating and pasting to Word?

    They were on FFG once upon a time John, Nexus was their product, not an Ares product.

    I have at least a half dozen of these box sets, Barrie, so I could send you a rulebook if you want one.

    We played with my WYB box and rules last night and I was going to scan the rules for you but I see Tim has fixed you up. They are a bit sparse but playable. The collision/overlapping rule is different.

    Thanks for the heads up Gary. I have asked Tim to send me an English copy, just waiting for him to confirm. I will look out for the Collision rule changes.
    I have the Famous Aces box too and intended to just supplement those with these.

    I don't think there's any difference between the two looking at them, probably why there's no specific WYB set in the files.

    Not sure, was there no supplementary sheet for rules pertaining to 2 gun aircraft?

    If you check your French rules against the Famous Aces set in the files you should be able to tell they are the same.
    The more up to date version of WoW rules covered the 2 seat stuff - it came with the WoW Deluxe Rules set. Used them for years. Altitude came with BD, but is slightly different to rules now used.
    Everything you need is rolled into the Rules and Accessories Pack now.
