I've booked in a Bag the Hun multiplayer game for the 21st November at the club, which will be built around an early 1945 bomber mission over Germany by B17G's, escorted by P51D Mustangs and/or P47D Thunderbolts, with a couple of P38J Lightning twin engine fighters as an added extra.
The Luftwaffe will be attempting to break up the combat box using waves of FW190A8's and FW190D9's, Bf109K's and Me262's, although some Me163 Komet rocket powered interceptors may also make an appearance if I get them painted. I have most of the other aircraft ready to go, so will only need to finish a handful of planes this time around.
Thus far, take up has been a bit slow but I'm sure it will pick up once the players get the message and start to sign up. I'm looking forward to working up both the scenario and the cards for this one, as there are a few rules that I have yet to try out involved, so it will be an interesting little project for the half term break.

Beat them to death with emails, texts and phone calls. They'll soon surrender.
ReplyDeleteIt's worth a try!
ReplyDeleteI look forward to seeing how this goes. I'd need some 1:600 B17's to try it myself. If it works well maybe I will do some next year, although. Don't have much BTH experience.
ReplyDelete1/600 would make a lot of sense. You could have three or four combat boxes rolling onto the table!

ReplyDeleteOne thing you could try is the Wings at War game A Mighty Fortress which is designed for 1/600th scale and includes some TD B17's, USAAF and Luftwaffe fighters. It's only a tenner as well.
