Knights of the Sky over Cambrai


I've just finished writing up the scenario briefing for the Knights of the Sky WW1 aerial game at the club this coming Tuesday. It's a re-hash of a scenario that we played a few years ago but switching roles, with the RFC intercepting a German artillery spotting mission, rather than the other way round. I've set it in November 1917 over the Cambrai Sector, where the Junkers J.1 was in active service, so it has a definite historical ring to it which is something that I like to do. The mission will be tough for the 'Furniture Van' to pull off but the RFC almost managed it in their clanky Re8 last time, so the Junkers J.1 should stand an even better chance, being up armoured and having a close escort of Fokker Dr.1's and Albatros DV's.
