I enjoyed the anti-shipping strike game yesteday and now have a better handle on the rules for bombing and flak as a result. It makes a refreshing change from the usual fighter versus fighter games that I've focussed on up until now, so I'm thinking of writing some more historical scenarios along similar lines.
I'm planning to branch out in a new direction so will be leaving Malta for the moment and moving the action closer to home. I've thought about cross channel mid-war possibilties before, with a particular focus on the Westland Whirlwinds of No 263 Squadron over Brittany, so will be digging out the models and putting together some ideas for new games.
It might not have been as a famous as a Spit or a Hurricane, but my goodness, the Whirlwind has to be one of the most beautiful looking planes ever made.
ReplyDeleteAgree. What a good looking plane, only beaten in my mind by the Mossie.
