We had a good game against solo run Fokker DVII's yesterday! As ever, the write up of the main game is on my blog at this link Enjoy!

You can't fool us! Everyone knows that all German planes in WWI were DR.1's. Painted red, of course.

Very cool game. Do I understand that the Germans were controlled by a solitaire style system you have authored? If so, very impressive work.

Thanks Chicklewis! If anyone wants to try the newest version of my solo rules, they can be downloaded freely from my clubs website at link

Herkybird's old solo system worked well, can vouch for it myself. I'll have to pop over and download the new version. Are there any big changes or mild tweaks I should be looking for?

The last lot of changes simply adds a paragraph making planes going nose to nose use a different set of manoeuvre options if within 6", this stops solo planes overshooting so much, which in the past allowed players to get on their tail too easily.
