Planes: Sopwith Camel, Siemens-Schuckert D.IV
We had some challenges getting started this month. I grabbed the wrong stack of information and so we did not have the rules, control panels, or critical charts. Luckily I did bring the 3x5 cards for the planes so we knew the plane info, and since we have played a lot we more or less have the rules down. We were unable to play with Critical hits because no one knew that chart by heart, and then any rules we had questions about we just "wing'd" it.
The first game was the "Love's vs Scott's". The Love's were the Camels and the Scott's were the Schuckerts. Scott M was not real happy to be with Scott Mc, after Scott Mc was quickly shot down, both Stan and Tim charged after Scott M and Tim was able to get both the kills.
The next game both Tim and Scott Mc got shot down, and then it was the long dance of trained WWI fighter pilots that ended with both Stan and Scott M out of ammo and breaking the engagement. I swear as I watched those planes move across the hex grid they were trying to see how many times they could wave at each other!
The next round once again Scott Mc was shot down by both Stan and Tim this time, they are still arguing who got the kill first
, and after that Scott M safely ran for the comfort of home.The final round Scott Mc was determined he was not going to get shot down, but once again everyone had his number and he was shot down by Tim. Scott M did the final blow on Stan for the kill. After the kill Scott M decided that he had had enough and charged for home with Tim spending the last of his ammo to try and get Scott M shot down, but he made it to safety.
Next month I promise I will have all the stuff, but, I was impressed how well our log sheets worked. Next month we will be adding AAA and possbily Ballon busting for real since we will have the rules... really I promise to bring the rules! I am also thinking it is time to open up the planes to any Aerodrome plane we have, so we will see how that will work.
