Hi Leland,

That is a good scenario. I have run a similar one a couple of times called "Kill the Chilean Ambassador", where a force of Chilean digs escort a merchant dig though a high pass in the Andes to Argentina. They are ambushed by a force of rebel digs.

The choice of digs was to try and get them used, with the scenario saying that the pass was above the nef ceiling.

You have to fiddle with the deployment to stop the rebels lining up in front of the pass, and give the Chileans more than one route though the pass, and/or a dummy merchant dig.

Our focus has been largely on ground SF lately, with the 15mm and 6mm ranges getting a number of new releases. However, Aeronef still has a large and faithful following, so we like to keep the range moving with the occasional new model or two.

We have a small number of merchant Aeronef, mostly British and French, but today we're releasing three German models. The hull forms are clearly recognizable as German, being very similar in style to their warships.

German Merchants

The huge Widder freighter has a resin hull with metal components, while the two smaller vessels are all-metal. Both the Widder and Belchen coaler have metal deck cranes to help with unloading. There is also a German Convoy Pack containing seven merchants plus escort vessels to help create scenarios.

VANFP-5003 – German Merchant Convoy – £22.00 GBP
VAN-5011 – Widder-class Heavy Merchant – £7.00 GBP
VAN-5012 – Belchen-class Coaler – £1.50 GBP
VAN-5013 – Marburg-class Lighter – £1.50 GBP
