About this game
This is Gibson's aerial version of L'Attaque. The board has no terrain. The 84 cardboard playing pieces have images on the side facing the owner and blank backs. They are mounted on metal clips as usual, with the pieces ranging from the Scout (1) to Air Marshall's Squadron (10). The Troop Carriers have a value of 4.5 and a critical role. AA Guns have ranges of 3-5 spaces. A piece is eliminated if attacked by a Searchlight within range of the gun. AA is killed if attacked by a Bomber (2).

Rules
Players set up freely on their own side of the board, then in turn move one piece at a time, a single space orthogonally. When moved back-to-back with an enemy, an attack is declared, with the higher value piece eliminating the lower value one (both in ties). Troop Carriers can move diagonally, eliminate lower-value pieces, and are driven back to base by higher ones. A player wins by landing a Troop Carrier on the opponents Aerodrome.
