Playtested my airplane rules using my blue tail squadron escorting some B-17s. Found here:

Good stuff, Joe! Glad the rules are working out, sounds like you're almost there. Good fight with quite a few aircraft on the board, though your Flying Doggies of the Army Air Corps need to tighten it up, let the Germans jump all over those bombers, lucky they only lost one! "There is a reason he is a Colonel and the wing commander, he nails the landing!"
Nah, he's a MacD ;) "The water was rough however and he was not found."
That SUCKS!!! Man, what happened, did you roll snakeyes? That shocked the heck out of me. And how come Pudge didn't confront McKennon himself? I patiently look forward to more. V/R,

Stryderg, thank you. .
Jack, that was unfortunate that Thornel died. The bail out table for squadron forward over water has a 30% chance of lost at sea. I subtracted 1 due to close coordination and still rolled a 2. I think that table is too harsh. I wonder who wrote it! : )
Pudge did confront McK. I sent the odds as possible on the AKOT that he would elevate it up to the CO and he did. So now will McK be able to control himself? If not will the group commander agree to relieve McK from the squadron? All kinds of possibilities to play out over the skies of Europe and on the ground in England.
Similar to your projects. Joe |

FWIW, my anti-malware software doesn't like your link ("Webroot"). Unfortunately, they don't say if it's due to an expired site security certificate, or for some more serious reason… MH |

Ahh, gotcha Joe, thanks for explaining, good stuff! Jack |

Hinds, thanks for letting me know. I tried the link with my phone and computer with no problems. My blog is through blogspot but there are absolutely no ads. I never signed up to try and make money on it. Just amateur gamers enjoying games. I am not tech savvy though; just a simple bone doctor.
Jack; agreed! Cheers
