    I have submitted the following list of games. They are now in the schedule. See above link to Huzzah! 2022.

    Event #48 Lighthouse Ballroom LH Table 2

    Wings of Glory WW2. Fighters from the RAF's 303 and 610 Squadrons engage with JG 26 while also trying to attack the wave of bombers crossing the channel. Old Blighty is in for a tough day if the RAF can't stop the German bombers.

    Event #52 Lighthouse Ballroom LH Table 2
    Friday 7-11pm B-24s over Germany, 25 Feb 1944
    Wings of Glory WW2. A flight of B-24s escorted is intercepted on route to the ME109 factory at Regensburg. The escorting P-38s defend the best they can and engage the Luftwaffe's ME109s and FW190s.

    Event #54 Lighthouse Ballroom LH Table 2
    Saturday 9am-1pm USAS vs Jasta Boelcke
    Wings of Glory WWI. The N28s of the 147th Aerosquadron are crossing the lines to begin their patrol when Fokker Triplanes of Jasta Boelcke decide to engage the Americans.

    Event #48 Lighthouse Ballroom LH Table 2
    Saturday 2-6pm French Day Bomber Raid into Germany
    WWI Wings of Glory. A force of French Bregeut bombers raids deep over the lines to destroy a munitions factory in Germany. Siemen-Schuckert D.III and IV scouts quickly climb to intercept.

    Event #55 Lighthouse Ballroom LH Table 2
    Saturday 7 11pm Wings of Glory WWI Free For All Tournament
    You are in your trusty kite over the Western Front and planes are all around you. Looking closely you see that none of them are your friends. Come show off your flying skill or luck in a free for all tournament.

    Event #57 Lighthouse Ballroom LH Table 2
    Sunday 10am-2pm Toasters! We can't go anywhere without Toasters showing up.
    Battlestar Galactica (ARES). The final stages of the mining expedition were underway when the Toasters appeared. Luckily everyone was on board the mining ship and the escorting Vipers were ready when the Cylons arrived.

    If they're YOUR planes, wouldn't they all count as your losses?

    In case anyone is interested in a non-WoG air game, someone on the CY6 forum posted that they are running
    a 64 plane B-17 bomber game.
    Here's his post:
    I’m going to be running the big bomber game. I’ve got 64 correctly marked B-17s of the 41st Bomb Division the “Hell’s Angels” the 303rd, 379th and 384th Bomb Groups. Based on the Historicon games.
