About this game
This pre-war (for the USA at least) game is very similar to German air war game Adler Luftkampfspiel, published in 1935. The board consists of two player areas separated by no-man's-land. Players try to move their bombers across the board to the far side of the opposing board, where they can drop bombs on enemy buildings and ammo dumps. At the same time, they must use their fighters either to escort the bombers or defend their own home board. The game has pieces for four players who then work in teams.
Mechanism
Move and capture
Rules
Planes start from their own first row, move into the owning player's preferred formations. Bombers only move 2 spaces straight ahead or 1 space and turn. Fighters move 3 ahead and one less if turning. Points are awarded both for bombing the enemy and shooting down planes. The player with the most points wins.
