I only have planes and ships for WW1 gaming. In those battles, the year hardly ever comes up as a point of discussion.

Only planes here as well, and those work for any year. Guess that skews the poll.

Same for me, just biplanes. But I have gamed (using a friend's figures) WW1 in German East Africa. That was fun.

I don't have one, but I went with 1914. I think the A-H invasion of Serbia and the fighting in the Balkans is quite interesting.

Airplanes = every year.

Ground battle = 1918, combined arms assault with tanks and close support aircraft.

Ships only here so 1914 and 1916.

Wouldn't planes in 1914 be pretty limiting?

Air wartare 1916 1918

Southern (Macedonian) Front though East Africa is interesting as well.

For the air 1915 (I have a strange fondness for the DH-2 so like DH-2 versus Eindekkers) – for the land war, 1914 – not a trench warfare fan

On land, my choice would be 1914, so there is movement, and more colorful uniforms, before the stalemate and the trenches in Western Europe nullified those factors.

Limited types and small engagements, but just as entertaining games!
