Hi guys.

I recently bought The first two boxed sets in the series ("Watch your back" and "Aces").

I am very impressed with the game in general, It's been many a year since I last took to the air with a few biplanes!

I have a question regarding the altitude rules: It seems that only one of the movement decks I have has the climb and dive cards. How do you get additional copies of these? it seems a bit odd that they don't come with every deck… Or am I missing something really obvious!!

Cheers

Ray

I'm sure all the models I bought have climb and dive cards – aren't they the ones with red lines on them?

I use the models but not the rules.

yes they are the two red line cards and each model comes with it's own full movement deck.

The decks from Famous Aces didn't have the climb/dive cards in the box. As far as I know, those two cards can't be ordered separately. However, all aircraft decks purchased in the boosters or subsequent boxed sets do have the climb/dive cards.

I didn't discard my decks that were missing cards; we don't use the altitude rules all that often, so the decks still are serviceable. And the next time you buy a plane or a booster with that deck, you'll have a complete deck with climb/dive capability.

The boxed set that included the rules for climbing and diving -- Burning Drachens -- included climb and dive cards for all the manuever decks from the previous boxed sets (Aces & WYB).
