    I have a feeling that all the remaining aircraft are just about ready to fall apart. It's becoming a game of chicken.

    10.1 Sam Urai powers northwards away from melee. Teaticket turns hard right to try and get on Flash’s tail. Flash banks left towards Zenlizard but is too far below him to get a shot. Camel Crew still trailing smoke heads Northwest.



    10.2 Flash climbs up towards Zenlizard but this allows Teaticket to get a snapshot in. Zenlizard banks right towards Camel Crew but the difference in altitude leaves him just out of range as Camel Crew performs an Immelmann in front of him. Sam Urai is still powering away into the distance, is he deserting.



    10.3 Flash banks right and catches Zenlizard as he banks left across him. Bullets thud into the Snipe and it spirals lazily down to earth, A kill for Flash! Camel Crew completes his Immelmann and opens fire on Teaticket whose Snipe has stalled. For the second time this turn a British aircraft shudders under the impact of German bullets and begins to spin down towards the ground. A kill for Camel Crew! Elsewhere Sam Urai has performed an Immelmann just in time to witness his wingmen being shot down.

    Sorry to leave you this way John, but we have faith that you will pull through and do the King proud.

    Pete, you cursed me for the early engine damage but you did the same to me on turn 2. I've been limping about like you. Not easy to do any offensive maneuvering with a sputtering engine. That wasn't too bad until you boomed me and put me to 1 point...not the luckiest of flights for me.

    Thanks for the game Andy. REP

    I'll start setting up for the next game.

    11.1 Sam Urai completes his Immelmann whilst Flash and Camel Crew both turn in his direction.



    11.2 Flash climbs up towards Sam Urai whilst Camel Crew and Sam Urai both turn away from each other gesticulating furiously.



    11.3 The aerial ballet continues as our protagonists seem unable to find a suitable firing position.

    Ah, trying to jink wasn't the right move. Should have powered ahead.

    Is it the last move? There are 15 scheduled rounds if you have the staying power.

    You zigged when you should have zagged Sam. Unlucky to get caught. Glad you enjoyed the game.

    12.1 The deadly dance continues as Sam Urai and Camel Crew both turn towards each other but neither has a clear shot. Flash climbs up to the same level as the SE5a.



    12.2 Sam Urai continues his turn and is now heading towards Flash's monoplane. Camel Crew turns sharply left and fires into Sam Urai as he passes, Flash banks right to try and re-join the action.



    12.3 Sam Urai tries to gain more height and bullets thud into his airframe once more as Flash turns sharply right to catch him. Smoke begins to pour from the SE5a. Elsewhere Camel Crew stalls.

    Why won't he stay still and be shot down - he keeps moving

    Well, airplanes aren't helicopters; if he doesn't keep moving , he'll just fall down all on his own.

    13.1 Sam Urai turns towards Flash hoping to avoid the follow up attack but Flash has anticipated this and turned sharply right. A short burst of Spandau fire and the final RFC aircraft falls from the skies. Another kill for Flash.





    (Note - The last 2 Damage in the top row should be at +1 as should the 0 below it).

    A comprehensive win for the Central Powers, 6pts (8-2) to 0pts (4-4). Huge thank you to all who took part. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.

    Not much luck with the damage cards there, just held it together long enough.

    Oh I don't know...

    Best game I've had in anything with an F deck; a very challenging & exciting match up - thanks Andy for running it & all the pilots taking part, I thoroughly enjoyed it but then you do when you're winning. Big thanks to Iain for covering my backside, hope I managed to return the favour, glad you made it through. Me and Iain managed to put rounds into all the Englanders which is pleasing and I see all the Jerries took a lump out of John who I have to say did the RAF proud.
    On to the next one soon & I hope the cards are as kind again - I think in OTT past I'd be referred to as a 'Lucky Git'
