I have recently upgraded to a new laptop as the old one ground to a halt and refused to do anything meaningful, including editing or updating the blog. This has enabled me to have a look at my blog tabs and layout, so that I can now add new links to and follow other bloggers, as well as commenting on things that I've enjoyed reading. One old favourite blog of mine is The Stronghold Rebuilt, which I haven't been able to follow properly for years due to the clunky computer.
I have reinstated the link in My Favourite Blogs and have been reading through some of the stuff I've missed, including this set of free WW1 air wargaming rules, designed for use with the 1/600th scale models from Tumbling Dice. This really grabbed my attention as I have painted up a good selection of these for the British and Germans in 1917, but have yet to actually play any games with them, as I haven't organised myself enough to set up Duel of Aces or Algernon Pulls It Off.
These straightforward rules look like they will be an ideal alternative option and also can be played solo, with minimum fuss or extra work to be done, apart from making some flight stands. I could use my MiG Alley ones for some winter dogfighting missions, I suppose, which would speed things up a bit. I'll see what I can make of them but first impressions are very positive. You can download the rules here:
