Spinning as house rules

**Druid_ian** · 11-24-2009 16:42

I have been thnking about adding a house rule to cover spins
I want to use them in conjunction with the altitude rules
the basic idea is to allow you to do three or more steep moves in a sequence
but if you try to do extra steep moves there is a chance you will enter a spin

What i propose is a a form of damage deck, with a series of spins that can also give damage to the aircraft as well as allowing the pilot to recover from the spin

After entering the spin the player draws a card each turn this either continues the spin ans well as losing an altitude level and possibly damaging the aircraft or will allow the pilot to recover from the spin with a random facing

An expert pilot may also choose to spin the aircraft to avoid an enemy aircraft but when attempting to recover will draw three cards and choose which one to play

I propose 3 decks giving 25,50 and 75% chances of entering a spin depending on the aircraft and skill of the pilot

I am currently creating the decks and if there is interest i will post them in the files section

I just read the post about your house rules for planes spinning out of control. I'm interested in seeing what you put together. Did you post them in the file section? I'm relatively new to this group, so I'm not very effective at finding anything yet.

Unlikely you'll get a response from Ian, Mike, his last post was in 2010 & last activity was 2021 !
At least Mike was able to give you some thread pointers - I did two types of spin and looks like the links on the spinning out thread are still good.

Yes, I saw them in your photo album section: spinning out of control and the controlled spin. I'm in the process of incorporating them into my house rules. Thank you.
