    Camelbeagle lets loose into hangar 5 and collapses into a pile of debris.

    Malachi turns into Baz and Baz feels the sting of hot lead.

    Looks like I chose to sit out an exciting one; but I'm glad some new people got a chance to play.

    I did manage to clear space, so if people want, I can host the next PbEM game. I can promise something different-the hint being, "think big."

    Hi Sam, you can count me in please. Yes this was a busy table where altitude was key.

    Sadly the USAS didn't seem to care about protecting their hangars. I was hoping you would only lose 3-4 of them and still be in the fight.

    Well, I'll leave it up to you but this one is technically over. The Germans have destroyed every hangar for 24 points plus 2 more for one kill. Even if the USAS down every Hun with no more losses to themselves they can't catch the Hun in points.

    It is just going to be a chase to the left side of the board. I am okay with ending.

    Possibly up to 12-as I said, think big. Numbers heavily weighted towards the Allies.

    Looks like you have all of Turn 8 in, might as well play it out as the last turn, Peter.
    Just as happy to carry on if that's what the peeps want, it has been... Outstanding

    I'll post turn 8 later today. I have to head out to get my first vaccine. Nothing local so I'm driving an hour+ to go to Gillette Stadium! I've never been there so I hope they let me get a look inside but I doubt it.

    From here on out is where the USAS would have their fun chasing down the Hun as they try to exit so it should not be dull. The challenge for the Germans is to survive while the USAS try to get a kill or two. Not saying the Germans can't get a kill or two themselves.

    Good luck with the vaccine, Peter. Great scenario -- I'm definitely stealing this one as I do most of your efforts lol. Those hangars burned beautifully.

    I’m easy either way - I’m assuming they just need to leave by their table edge.

    I gave the Germans a special +1 point for any plane that destroyed a hangar if it left the German edge. If they leave any other edge they lose 1 point.

    I didn't tell the Americans directly, I told them not to let the Germans go home. I was going to give them 3 points for a kill. As they didn't save any of their hangars points for kills are now useless.

    Now it's down to hunting each other until the Germans decide to fly off board.
