I played the last four turns of the Digger Dogfight scenario today and it went really well, in fact with a bit of a bang. To cut a long story short, here's the roll call at the end of Turn Ten.
Jasta 18
Ltn.d.R. Muller - engine problems resulted in him leaving the fight and crash landing on the German side of the lines (I screwed up his spin...so decided this was a feasible alternative).
Vfzw.Kuhne - down in flames
Ltn.Mendel - exploded in mid air.
Ltn.Baier - minor structural damage but got back to the Jasta 18's airstrip.
Ltn d.R. Schultz - also got back with structural damage but it was a close run thing.
No.4 Squadron
Lt.Weingarth - spins in and crashes.
Lt.Nowland - exploded in mid air.
Lt.Rintoul - new underwear but makes it back (his Camel is now U/S due to over stressed wings).
Lt.Wright - claims one E/A shot down.
Major McCloughry - claimed one E/A shot down. Top bloke!
This resulted in a well deserved victory for the Diggers!
The only thing I'll change is the suggested time, which I'll bump up to two hours, assuming there are two or more players. It took me longer to play as I was running it solo and making notes along the way. I am also going to amend the Fire Factors on the aircraft record sheets in line with the original rules but with twin observer guns rated as FF 4 not FF 3. which seems more realistic.
Good fun!
