    Yes, my old klunker isn't as nimble as your tripe. My control panel has on, off, up, down, nothing else, and the up switch is a bit loose.

    May help a bit if you remove the charcoal and soot from it?

    My goodness! Wiping off the control panel I found an altimeter and a fuel gauge. Looks like there were other controls but they have burned off.

    You flew right alongside him for two moves and your rear gun has a 360 arc against targets above so could also engage with the front gun at short range on the third, so, yeah, three opportunities missed ! Take a look:

    I didn’t mind at all - guessed they were just playing the not operating the rear gun for the victory points. Can’t recce while playing Rambo.

    Camel crew’s pilot fires again on Gangleader147, while his rear gunner shoots at Baz. Baz returns a salvo at camel crew. Teaticket climbs to get back into action and to protect his wingman camel crew. Sauerkraut fires on Sam Urai.

    Sam Urai is just out of Sauerkraut’s field of shooting. Gangleader147 receives another hit by camel crew. Teaticket drifts left to intercept Baz, who is heading for camel crew.

    Gangleader147 and Sam Urai could shake off their pursuers and get in position to attack each other’s tormentor. Teaticket is closing in on Baz. Will he come close enough before Baz is in camel crew’s neck?

    Teaticket gets a lucky shot on Baz, who’s fuselage can’t hold this additional damage. Sam Urai maneuvers through the escorts and has camel crew almost in range. Gangleader147 and Sauerkraut drift in each other’s direction and open fire. Gangleader147’s machine starts to smoke. Seems there was hit a critical part.

    Teaticket pulls up, Gangleader147 slows down, and camel crew out turns Sam Urai. Camel crews rear gunner take the opportunity to perforate Sam Urai’s underside. Sauerkraut also opens fire on Sam Urai.

    Sam Urai suddenly performs a Split-S. He and Sauerkraut are rushing at each other. Sauerkraut opens fire. Sam Urai’s Tripe bursts into a cloud of wood and fabric. Meanwhile camel crew’s pilot shoots on the smoking Gangleader147.

    Good shooting by Teaticket, thought I had got far enough away, but in the end the collision damage was too much, so lessons learned. Had a good time and got off some decent shots and moves so thanks to my oppo’s, comrades, and Flo for running it. I hope our leader, gangleader can do some damage still.


    Hope I get another chance for a game as it was good to learn the process, especially with altitude.

    Wow, I knew there'd be some shooting but that turn went way better than I thought it would ! Peter avenges being flamed by Baz with a sneaky attack from under the tail, Andy blows John away and Iain lays into Lee once more and even 'Blind Hans' put his sarnie down !

    Will take some fancy footwork and something special to pull this back Lee.

    Well, that crowded corner quickly isn't any more.

    Baz, your agile delicate tripe was no match for my brute of a Halberstadt in a game of chicken that I didn't know we were playing on turn 2.

    Good shooting Andy.

    Ok Lee, you have your work cut out for you now!

    Would be nice if you remembered to take some photos before we head back for Schnapps and medals Iain.

    That was some pretty good shooting as well Pete.

    By the way: While choosing the scenario, I was thinking about giving shot down players an AA gun. But thought the coordination with marked images isn't very comfortable.

    Interesting idea. Maybe worth some playtesting to see if it could be made to work in these games. Probably not long enough left in this game for a trial. Everyone seems to have flown very aggressively.

    Haha I can really imagine your observer eating his Stullen in the gemütliche Stuben of the Whalefish behind the velvet curtains of the observer cabin.

    I was not sure what to expect, other than the Tripes were out gunned. I got myself into a bad spot early on and never got out of it. .

    It's not over, until it's over... but...
