AAR #1We resurrected the "Search for the Paris Gun" for tonight's scenarios. In the first game WrongWay John with a Fokker D.VII and two A-firing anti-aircraft lorries were defending three possible locations for the infamous Paris Gun. Three Spad XIIIs flow by CrashCraig, Todd, and myself were in search of the elusive weapon.
Craig exchanges gunfire with the lorry on the left while I have an exchange with the lorry in the middle. Todd is hugging the right side and John is out of sight.
I have eliminated the lorry in the center while Craig is taking ground fire from the other lorry, which has suffered engine damage (which doesn't apply). John is charging from behind us.
Each Spad is within a 1/2 ruler distance of the target card and is permitted to see what it is. Once of us must have found the Paris gun and needs to return to base with the vital information.
Todd takes a long loop to the right to circle back to base, while I Immelmann and hope to return by the most direct route. However, that pesky lorry is blasting away at me.
Craig is duking it out with John and the lorry, while Todd and I are on the way home.
We called the game because Todd had seen the special card and John had no hope of catching him. The French win this one.
