Yes, we were playing Wings of Glory WW1 at the club today, and were fighting the Red Baron himself!

14Bore,

The rules were "Wings of War/Wings of Glory" for WW1 airplanes. They make for a fun and relatively quick game.

Thanks for that 'the drake' – glad you liked it!

I've used your AI system, and it's scary how well the "automated" planes maneuver. It feels purposeful, even though it's (somewhat) random. I highly recommend the system to anyone wanting a good-sized fight with only a few players.

Looks like y'all had a great fight!

Cheers Parzival! If you are interested, the 3 options for each sector usually reflect (a) What I would do (b) what I would possibly consider doing and (c) The silly option…though in practice I fairly frequently find the 'silly option' the best!

A good report, Herky. I'm slowly re-introducing WoW/WoG back into our club. We're only using the basic rules, but everyone enjoys them.

PS Here they are, last meeting, practising the war galley method of dispatching their enemies….

Cheers guys!

#Dal Gavan: we just use the basic rules too, no need for fancy abilities or altitude!
