Hi all. Has anyone played the above? Is it any good? Are there more plan stats than say Blue Max Canvas Eagles? Cheers |

I played it at one of the HMGS cons. It was limited to 1915-16 in the first volume. If you like CY6 WW2, you will like this. There are not many changes. |

That sounds good. Does the first book cover things like Fokker DII and the various early pfalz ? |

Yes, stats for the Fokker D.II are included in the book I have (earlier, pre glossy spiral bound combined volume). Also included are the
- Pfalz D.III onwards
- Roland D.I and D.II, and the Fokker EIII and E.V series that they built under licence before that.
No stats for the Morane L or earlier Fokker E.I and E.II copies but it wouldn't be hard to work out something close enough. CY6 is a simple system and doesn't get hung up on minor differences in aircraft performance. |

CY6 and Canvas Eagles are very similar. You pick a maneuver and fly it. Altitude has little impact. Wings was more involved and detailed. Warbirds Canvas Falcons is the highest level of detail. |

Take a look at In Clouds of Glory, I think it is one of the best flight games out there. And all free. William icog.dk |
